Hammer Force Calculator:>
Enter the values of mass, m(kg) and acceleration due to gravity, a(m/s2) to determine the value of Hammer force, HF(N).
Hammer Force Formula:
Hammer force refers to the force exerted by a hammer on an object when it is used to strike. This force is a result of the hammer’s mass and its acceleration at the moment of impact.
Hammer force, HF(N) in Newtons is calculated by multiplying the mass, m(kg) in kilograms by the acceleration due to gravity, a(m/s2) in metres per second squared.
Hammer force, HF(N) = m(kg) * a(m/s2)
HF(N) = hammer force in Newtons, N.
m(kg) = mass in kilograms, kg.
a(m/s2) = acceleration due to gravity in metres per second squared, a(m/s2).
Hammer Force Calculation:
- Suppose a 2 kg hammer is swung and accelerates at 10m/s2 at the moment of impact. Calculate the force exerted by the hammer.
Given: m(kg) = 2kg, a(m/s2) = 10m/s2.
Hammer force, HF(N) = m(kg) * a(m/s2)
HF(N) = 2 * 10
HF(N) = 20N.
- Suppose you have a hammer force (HF) of 30 Newtons and the acceleration (a) at the moment of impact is 15m/s2. Find the mass of the hammer.
Given: HF(N) = 30N, a(m/s2) = 15m/s2.
Hammer force, HF(N) = m(kg) * a(m/s2)
m(kg) = HF(N) / a(m/s2)
m(kg) = 30/15
m(kg) = 2kg.
