Answer:
F = 800 [N]
Explanation:
To be able to calculate this problem we must use the principle of momentum before and after the impact of the hammer.
We must summarize that after the impact the hammer does not move, therefore its speed is zero. In this way, we can propose the following equation.
ΣPbefore = ΣPafter
where:
m₁ = mass of the hammer = 0.15 [m/s]
v₁ = velocity of the hammer = 8 [m/s]
F = force [N] (units of Newtons)
t = time = 0.0015 [s]
v₂ = velocity of the hammer after the impact = 0
Note: The force is taken as negative since it is exerted by the nail on the hammer and this force is directed in the opposite direction to the movement of the hammer.

Answer:
Explanation:
The energy of a photon is given by the equation , where h is the <em>Planck constant</em> and f the frequency of the photon. Thus, N photons of frequency f will give an energy of
.
We also know that frequency and wavelength are related by , so we have
, where c is the <em>speed of light</em>.
We will want the number of photons, so we can write
We need to know then how much energy do we have to calculate N. The equation of power is , so for the power we have and considering 1 second we can calculate the total energy, and then only consider the 4% of it which will produce light, or better said, the N photons, which means it will be
.
Putting this paragraph in equations:
.
And then we can substitute everything in our equation for number of photons, in S.I. and getting the values of constants from tables:
