What happens at the atomic level when a metal is subjected to pressure such as a blow from a hammer?
The metal cations easily slide past one another.
A hammer hits a nail the action to be the impact of the hammer on the nail what is the reaction?
The hammer exerts a force on the nail; the nail exerts a force on the hammer.
What happens when you hit a crystal with a hammer?
In most cases the crystal will shatter. The manner in which it shatters depends on the type of crystal.
What is steam hammer?
A steam hammer is a power hammer driven by steam, used to shape forgings. It consists of a hammer-like piston located within a cylinder. The hammer is raised by the pressure of steam injected into the lower part of a cylinder and falls down with a force by removing the steam. Usually, the hammer is made to fall faster by injecting steam into the upper part of the cylinder. Steam hammers that fall by their own weight are called steam drop hammers. Steam hammers vary greatly in weight from 45 kilograms to 90 metric tons.
What happens to a metallic element when hit by a hammer?
When you hit a metal or non metal material with a hammer, the result will vary depending on the specific material. A non metal material can shatter, break, or flatten. A metal material may not have any damage or it may have a dent from the hammer.
What happens at the atomic level when a metal is subjected to pressure such as a blow from a hammer?

What happens when you tap zirconium with a hammer?
Pretty much the same thing as happens when you tap aluminum with a hammer.
How did forging get started?
In 1843-- steam raised the hammer, but the weight of the hammer was the only pressure used to shape the metal. By 1888, a double-acting hammer used steam to supplement the pressure exerted by the falling hammer.
What happens to pressure when the area deceases but the force stays the same?
Pressure is defined as the force per area P = F/A. Therefore, the pressure will increase if you decrease the area. Think of what happens if you push a hammer against your skin compared to if you push a knife against your skin with the same force. Which one has the smallest area? ;)
What happens to the hammer's momentum after the hammer hits the nail?
The momentum and energy is transferred to the nail.
What happens to a can after hammering it?
After you have hit a can with a hammer the can will be smashed
What happens when you hammer your thumb?
It hurts a lot!!
Why it is easier to chop wood with an axe rather than a hammer?
Pressure is inversely proportional to the surface area. So less the surface area more the pressure and more the surface area less the pressure.. As the edge of axe has lesser surface area than the edge of hammer so the pressure will be more. That is why it is easier to chop wood with an axe rather than a hammer.
Is there a super fancy name for a hammer?
A Universal Pressure Applicating Device
What happens when a steam trap fails?
you will get water hammer in the system
What happens when a piano key is pushed?
The piano key is connected to a lever inside the piano, which transmits the pressure to a small hammer that strikes a stretched wire inside the piano, producing a note that is amplified by the wooden body of the piano.
What determines the intensity of the excess pressure in a water-hammer wave?
the amount of extinguished velocity
