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.


What happens if w e hit iron nail with hammer?

When you hit an iron nail with a hammer, the force from the hammer drives the nail into the material (like wood) it is being inserted into. The impact causes the nail's pointed end to penetrate the surface, creating a hole and displacing the material around it. This process can also cause the nail to deform slightly, allowing for a tighter grip in the substrate. Overall, the hammer's impact transforms kinetic energy into mechanical work, securing the nail in place.


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.


How is hammering a nail on the wall an application of pressure?

When you hammer a nail into a wall, you are applying pressure by exerting force on the hammer, which then transfers that force to the nail. The pressure created by the hammer forces the nail to penetrate the wall's surface, securing it in place.


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.

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 happens to the hammer's momentum after the hammer hits the nail?

After the hammer hits the nail, its momentum is transferred to the nail causing it to move. Momentum is conserved in the system, meaning that the total momentum of the hammer and nail before and after the collision remains the same.

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?

When you hit a nail with a hammer, the kinetic energy from the hammer is converted into mechanical energy, creating vibrations that generate friction between the nail and the board. This friction converts some of the mechanical energy into thermal energy, causing the nail to warm up due to increased molecular motion.


When you hit a nail with a hammer there is a force where?

When you hit a nail with a hammer, the force is applied at the point of contact between the hammer and the nail. This force drives the nail into the surface it is being hammered into.


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.
