A 1.1 kg hammer strikes a nail. Before the impact, the hammer is moving at 4.5 m/s; after the impact it is moving at 1.5 m/s in
Talja [164]

Answer:

132 N

Explanation:

Given that a  1.1 kg hammer strikes a nail. Before the impact, the hammer is moving at 4.5 m/s; after the impact it is moving at 1.5 m/s in the opposite direction. If the hammer is in contact with the nail for 0.025 s, what is the magnitude of the average force exerted by the hammer on the nail

From Newton 2nd law of motion,

Change in momentum = impulse.

Change in momentum = m( V - U )

Substitute all the parameters into the formula

Change in momentum = 1.1 ( 4.5 - 1.5 )

Change in momentum = 1.1 × 3

Change in momentum = 3.3 kgm/s

Impulse = Ft

That is,

Ft = 3.3

Substitute time t into the formula above

F × 0.025 = 3.3

F = 3.3 / 0.025

F = 132 N

Therefore, the magnitude of the average force exerted by the hammer on the nail is 132 N.

Which statements belong to dalton's atomic theory? select all that apply
kvv77 [185]

The answers would be:

3. Atoms cannot be broken down into smaller pieces (or indivisible)

4. All atoms of an element are identical.

5. Chemical reactions cause atoms to be rearranged.

Although all of the statements regarding atoms are true, because of the technology during Dalton's time, the others were not yet discovered. As time progressed modifications were made which built our modern atomic theory.
