How does a hammer used to pull a nail from the board change the direction of the force?
It is a lever.
How is a change in an object's direction related to the applied force?
In order to change direction, the applied force (represented as a Vector) must change DIRECTION. A change in magnitude of the Force is not necessary.
What does a pulley do to the direction of a force?
Pulleys change the direction of a force.
What is needed to change the direction of a moving mass?
The answer is force because Force is needed to change the direction of a moving mass.
What changes the direction of a force?
Force changes either the speed or the direction of motion, or both.
When you use a hammer to drive a nail into a piece of wood are you changing the size or the direction of the force?
change the direction of force,because it exerted the force on it.
How does a hammer used to pull a nail from the board change the direction of the force?
It is a lever.
How does a hammer use to pull a nail from a board change the direction of the force?
The hammer is acting as a lever. The force exerted against the fulcrum (the head of the hammer) causes the claw end to lift and extract the nail.

The answer is force because Force is needed to change the direction of a moving mass.
Does a wedge change the direction of the force?
when it changes its direction
What changes the direction of a force?
Force changes either the speed or the direction of motion, or both.
Does a pulley change the direction over which you exert your force?
No it does notIt may change direction but obviosly it cannot exert you force
Can force change the direction of a body?
Strictly you should ask whether a force can change the direction a body is moving in. The answer is yes.
Why might someone want to change the direction of a force they apply?
If the work that they want to do is not being accomplished, they may want to change the direction of force. They may also want to change the direction of force due to space constraints.
What must be applied to an object to change its direction?
Forces cause motion or the change in motion.
