The force exerted by the hammer claws on the nail is =1578N
<h3 /><h3>How to calculate magnitude of force:</h3>
The force that is applied, as the effort on the hammer= F1
The force exerted by the hammer claws on the nail= F2
But,
magnitude of force exerted on hammer= F1*d1
While magnitude of force exerted by the hammer claws on the nail = F2( d2sin30°)
And, F1*d1 = F2( d2sin30°)
Where F1 = 133N
d1 = 29cm = 0.29m
F2 = X
d2 = 4.89cm = 0.0489m
After substitution,
133 × 0.29 = X( 0.0489 × sin30°)
38.57 = X ( 0.0489 × 0.5)
38.57 = X(0.02445)
X= 38.57/0.02445
X = 1578N
Therefore, the force exerted by the hammer claws on the nail is =1578N
