What is the magnitude of the average force exerted

Reference no: EM13323778

A carpenter uses a hammer to strike a nail. Approximate the hammer's weight of 1.8lbs, as being concentrated at the head, and assume that at impact the head is traveling in the -j direction. If the hammer contacts the nail at 50mph and the impact occurs over 0.023 seconds, what is the magnitude of the average force exerted by the nail of the hammer?
