When a hammer strikes a nail, it is compressed along its length. Suppose that a steel nail 10.00 cm long and 3.00 mm in diameter is compressed an average of 65.0 µm by a 0.460 kg hammer during a 1.20 ms collision.

(a)What average force (in N) was exerted on the nail by the hammer? N

(b)What is the impulse (in kg·m/s) imparted to the hammer?  kg·m/s

(c)If the hammer is moving at 7.00 m/s just before the collision, what is its final velocity (in m/s)?

m/s
