Which travels faster in air ?

a) transverse wave

b) a fighter jet (f16)

c) a race car

Mechanical transverse does not travel through air . But electromagnetic transverse wave will travel at the speed of light . Thus it travels faster .

Newton’s Second Law

In order to catch a ball , a baseball player extends the hand forward before the impact with the ball and then lets it ride backwards in the direction of the balls motion upon impact . Why, doing this reduces the force of impact on the players hand principally ?
Change in momentum = Impulse + F. delta t . As the time (delta t) in which change in momentum takes place increases by letting its side backwards , F decreases
