Why a fast-moving cricket ball can cause more injuries to a cricketer than a moving tennis ball?
More force is needed to stop a cricket ball (which has more mass) and less force is needed to stop a tennis ball (which has less mass).
The force required to stop a moving ball is proportional to mass (m) and velocity (v), i.e., momentum = m x v.
Therefore, a faster ball will require more force.
