You drive a nail horizontally into a wall, using a 0.52 kg hammerhead. If the hammerhead is moving horizontally at 4.5 m/s and in one blow drives the nail into the wall a distance of 2.9 cm, determine the average force acting on
(a) the hammerhead
(b) the nail

Hint: calculate the acceleration of the hammer head, then use F=ma.

You must have the same homework as "Soonawan786", they asked the identical question!
