You can indeed nail a board in space. This act is incredibly difficult due to the lack of gravity though.

Why hard to drive nail into loose board?

sometimes it is hard to nail wood when you are nailing to a board at the center of a long mid-space area where there is no under support --the board will bounce instead of holding solidly and many cases most likely bending the nail before the nail penetrates the wood. Today many smart carpenters are using the neumatic Air Compressed Nailers.


How hard does one have to hit a nail into a board?

When nailing a nail in to a board, one needs to ensure that they are hitting the nail hard enough to go in to the board, but not too hard as the nail will bend. One will quickly learn just how hard to hit a nail.


What laws of motion or demonstrated by a hammer pounding a nail into a board?

The hammer pounding a nail into a board demonstrates Newton's third law of motion. The action force is the hammer striking the nail, and the reaction force is the nail pushing back against the hammer. This interaction causes the nail to be driven into the board.


Is driving a nail into a board a physical change?

yes it is because your not changing the substance :)


When you hit a nail into a board by using a hammer the head of the new gets warm in terms of kinetic and thermal energy describe why you think the nail-heads get warm?

When you hit a nail with a hammer, kinetic energy is converted into mechanical energy, causing the nail to impact and penetrate the board. This conversion also produces heat due to friction between the nail and the board, increasing the thermal energy of the nail head.


Which of newtons law of motion is demonstrated by a hammer pounding a nail into a board?

The First!


When you hit a nail into a board using a hammer the head of the new gets warm in terms of kinetic and thermal energy describe why you think this happens?

When you hit a nail into a board with a hammer, the kinetic energy from the force of the impact is converted into thermal energy due to the friction between the nail and the board. This friction causes the molecules in both the nail and the board to vibrate, generating heat energy.


What helps keep a nail in place when it is through a board?

Gravity helps keep a nail in place


What the difference between input and output forces and the output distances for a hammer pulling a nail off a board?

The input force is the force applied by the person using the hammer to pull the nail. The output force is the force exerted by the hammer on the nail to pull it out of the board. The output distance is the distance the nail moves as it is being pulled out of the board.


How does a hammer used to pull a nail from the board change the direction of the force?

It is a lever.
