Liquid matter has atoms that move moderately freely; this is shown that whenever you pour water into a cup, it fills the shape.
Solids on the other hand, have atoms that basically don't move; thus is because the item is purely compact, and, for contrast, putting a rock in a cup wouldn't fill the shape of the cup, it would just lie there as it's original form.

Hope this helps!

The collision between a hammer and a nail can be considered to be approximately elastic. estimate the kinetic energy acquired by
Setler [38]

Here we can use momentum conservation as in this type of collision there is no external force on it

m_1v_{1i} + m_2v_{2i} = m_1 v_{1f} + m_2v_{2f}

now here we can say

m_1 = 10 g

v_{1i} = 0

m_2 = 550 g

v_{2i} = 3.5 m/s

now here we can say

10*0 + 550 * 3.5 = 10 v_{1f} + 550 v_{2f}

192.5 = v_{1f} + 55 v_{2f}

now by coefficient of restitution

for elastic collision we know that e = 1

v_{2f} - v_{1f} = e(v_{1i} - v_{2i})

v_{2f} - v_{1f} = 0 - 3.5

now by solving the two equation

56v_{2f} = 189

v_{2f} = 3.375 m/s

also we know that

v_{1f} = v_{2f} + 3.5 = 3.375 + 3.5 = 6.875 m/s

so final speed of the nail is 6.875 m/s
