A cricket ball of mass 0.2 kg moves with a velocity of 20 m/s and is brought to rest by a player in 0.1 s. Calculate the impulse of the ball and average force applied by the player.

Explanation

To solve the problem step by step, we will calculate the impulse of the cricket ball and the average force applied by the player.

### Step 1: Calculate the initial momentum of the ball
The momentum \( p \) of an object is given by the formula:
\[ p = m \cdot v \]
where:
...
