It makes all the domains of the magnet jumble up ( they all turn separate ways ) So the nail is no longer acting as a magnet

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.
How does banging a steel nail reduce magnetisation?
By banging a nail it causes all the tiny domains to face different directions so you end up with a non-magnetised nail.
According to newtons third law of motion when a hammer strikes and exerts force on to a nail the nail is what?
An object in motion stays in motion until acted upon by an outside force. When the energy from the hammer hits the nail the hammer stops because its acted on by the nail. The nail takes on most of the energy and goes into whatever you might be nailing, like wood. The nail stops and the wood takes the energy and it just keeps going until the energy stops.
Is a nail iron?
An iron nail is an object used to hammer things in with, boof, or boof boof
Can you make a temporary magnet by hammering a nail with a hammer?
Yes
What is the difference between a weakly magnetised nail and a strongly magnetised nails?
A Weakly magnetised nail will pick up less paper clips then a highly magnetised nail, Hope That Helps:)
What is the difference between a weakly magnetised nail and a strongly magnetised nail?
The strong magnetised nail will pick up more paper clips than the weak magnetised nail.That is because the strong magnetised nail is getting more strength and that means that the weak magnetised nail is getting less strength.in a steel nail there are these things called domains, in a weakly magnetised nail some of them will be pointing north, south, east and west, but however in a strongly magnetised nail all the domains will point to north.
What is the diffrent between a magnetised steel nail and an unmagnetised steel nail?
what is the diffrence between a magnetised nail and a unmagnetised nail
What happens to the hammer's momentum after the hammer hits the nail?
The momentum and energy is transferred to the nail.
If you have a a magnet stuck to the nail then a paper clip stuck to the nail then you take the magnet away and the nail in the paper clip are still together why did that happen?
this happens because the magnet has magnetised the nail
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 are the different tenses of the word strike?
I will strike the nail with the hammer. I strike the nail with the hammer. I struck the nail with the hammer. I have struck the nail with the hammer.
When you hit a nail into a board using a hammer the head of the nail gets warm in terms of kinetic and thermal energy describe why you think this happens?
The kinetic energy transfers from the hammer to the nail. The molecules inside the nail move rapidly and create heat.
What is the analogy for hammer is to nail?
hammer - nail screwdriver - screw
When a hammer hits a nail how does the force on the nail compare to the force on the hammer?
The force of the hammer is much greater than the force of the nail. Gravity pulls down the hammer, hits the nail, and the nail forces up, but the force of gravity wins over the force pulling on the nail.
What do you use to hammer a nail?
a hammer
How do you hammer a nail into a block of wood without touching the hammer or the nail?
nothing
