Scourging was done with a whip, usually the "cat 'o nine tails" type which had the business end of the whip divided into several parts which had metal pieces embedded in the ends. It would tear the flesh with virtually every blow. Scourging was a standard part of the crucifixion process and many prisoners died from the scourging before they could be crucified.

What did Peter do to one of the Roman soldiers who arrested Jesus?

Peter did not do anything to one of the Roman soldiers who arrested Jesus as the Roman soldiers were not involved in the arrest. The High Priest sent some persons along with some Temple guards to arrest Jesus. One of these persons was "Malchus" who was a servant of the High Priest. Peter drew his sword and cut an ear of Malchus off. Jesus took the ear and placed it back on Malchus' head. This is the only place in Scripture where Jesus healed a fresh wound.
