What happens to the hammer's momentum after the hammer hits the nail?
The momentum and energy is transferred to the nail.

The effort force is where you are holding the hammer to pull the nail.
Describe the types of energy generated when you hit a nail with a hammer?
when you raise the hammer at the top of your upswing the hammer has potential energy when you lower the hammer to hit a nail , the hammer has potential energy.
How does a hammer fix nail in wood?
The scientific definition of impact is force divided by time. So, you exert force on a hammer when you swing it, over a certain period of time, and that force is then delivered to the nail in a much shorter period of time, hence the impact is magnified. The nail is thus driven into the wood When hammer strikes a nail the kinetic energy of the hammer is transferred into the nail as soon as it hits the nail. This kinetic energy acts as the driving force for the nail which is forced down into the soft wood. The penetration occurs as the pointed end of the nail easily pierces between the fibers of the wood. The stronger the hammer strike is, the farther the nail goes in due to increased energy transfer. If the surface is very hard, the third law of newton works much effectively, every action has an equal and opposite reaction, and hence the nail and hammer will only bounce back. But the fibers of the wood gives ample space for the pointed tip of the nail to penetrate inside and stay fixed.A hammer hence acts to provide force to the nail.

It means that we tend to solve problems in ways we have solved them previously, and we are limited by the variety of resources we have on hand and are familiar with. Visualize it: when a light bulb burns out, smash it. And so on.
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.

Is the hammer a lever?
Depending on what you are using the hammer for. If the hammer is been used to pull up a nail then yes but if its been used to hammer in a nail then no. For something to be a lever it must have a fulcrum which the curve on the hammer works as as you try to pull out a nail.
