4. ""giving in"" during a catching action in baseball more than one answer is correct a. reduces the magnitude of the force required to stop the ball. b. increases the magnitude of the force required to stop the ball. c. increases the contact time of the hand with the ball. d. does neither increase nor decrease the impulse required to stop the ball.

A. reduces the magnitude of the force required to stop the ball.

C. increases the contact time of the hand with the ball.

D. does neither increase nor decrease the impulse required to stop the ball.

Explanation:

As we know that the force required to stop the ball is given as

here we know that

so we have

now we know that time to stop the ball is increased due to which the force to stop the ball is decreased

so we have correct answer will be

A. reduces the magnitude of the force required to stop the ball.

C. increases the contact time of the hand with the ball.

D. does neither increase nor decrease the impulse required to stop the ball.

i think it would be 5
