What is the reaction force when a hammer hits a nail?
The reaction force when a hammer hits a nail is called the law of motion. This motion falls under Newton's Third Law.
When forces are equal in strength and opposite to each other?
Magnetic (north and south poles are equal and opposite) otherwise Newton says every action has an equal but opposite reaction. If you punch a wall your fist hits the wall at the same rate the wall damages your fist.
What happens to the hammer's momentum after the hammer hits the nail?
The momentum and energy is transferred to the nail.
When one bumper car hits another how does the reaction force affect the first car?
The Car Moves in the direction opposite if the action force :) Sincerely Elizabeth The first car hit has an equal but opposite reaction.
When A hammer Hits A Nail What Energy Is Transferred?
Kinetics
What are the action-reaction forces if a bug hits the windshield?
striking of bug is action while bug getting hurt is reaction -Thunder
Why the equal action reaction forces do not cancel each other when one person hits a ball?
The action and reaction forces act on different objects. For two forces to cancel each other - and provide a net force of zero, for Newton's First Law - they must act on the same object.
What is the reaction force when a hammer hits a nail?
The reaction force when a hammer hits a nail is called the law of motion. This motion falls under Newton's Third Law.
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 is the reaction force when a hammer hit a nail?
The reaction force when a hammer hits a nail is called the law of motion. This motion falls under Newton's Third Law.
How are the size an direction of action- reaction forces related?
According to Newton's Third Law, every action has an equal and opposite reaction. So, action-reaction forces are equal in magnitude (size) and opposite in direction. For example, a bug hits the windshield of a car. The force of the car on the bug is equal to the force of the bug on the car. The accelerations of the two are obviously different, because acceleration depends on mass. Unintuivie, but true.
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.
How does science have to do with baseball?
projectile motion (vertical and horizontal motion) when the pitcher throws the ball and when the batter hits it.plus friction when people slip. and air resistance, and force of the ball, and action-reaction forces
What is DAO pistols?
DAO = Double Action Only. Pulling the trigger cocks the hammer (striker) until the trigger breaks and the hammer (or striker) hits the firing pin. A striker is like an internal hammer.
When does the reaction force occurs in the action force?
A reaction force is directly opposite of action force.If a ball hit another ball, they actually hit each other at the same time with the same force if they are of the same size and mass.If a ball hit a football player, then the football player equally hit the ball but in proportion to mass. This happen at the same time.Now for the tricky part.The action force could be considered to trigger a reaction force different to what it would normally be because it is observed. Would this not make reaction force before action force?Still probably not valid.As a reaction force is directly opposite of action force, it would not matter if the football player hits the ball hard or not so hard as a result of what he sees. Energy exchanged will be different, but always in proportion to mass.The football player would only be exchanging action and reaction force with other objects/players before hitting the football, making another exchange of energy.Claim:All exchange of energy happens at the same time for both objects in proportion to their mass no matter the circumstances.Newtons third law.
Explain Why the equal action and reaction forces forces do not cancel each other when person hits a ball?
It does work. The force of a person hitting a ball "cancels" out the force of the ball moving and brings it to a stop (to zero). Only then does the ball move in the direction it is hit, due to the overwhelming force applied by the person.
Why do the equal reaction and reaction forces do not cancel each other when one person hits the ball?
Because the ball 'flexes' - thus losing a tiny percentage of its energy.
