A friend tosses a ball of mass to you with a speed . When you catch the ball, you feel a noticeable sting in your hand, due to the force required to stop the ball. If you now catch a second ball, with a mass and speed , is the sting you feel greater than, less than, or equal to the sting you felt when you caught the first ball? The time required to stop the two balls is the same. greater than the sting you felt when you caught the first ball less than the sting you felt when you caught the first ball equal to the sting you felt when you caught the first ball
