Immediately after being struck by a hammer, the nail (mass of 50 g) has a velocity of 50 m/s. The total frictional force is 62.5 kM. How far does the nail move before it comes to a stop

nail will stop after traveling 1000 m    

Explanation:

We have given mass m = 50 gram = 0.05 kg

Frictional force which is used to stop the mass F = 62.5 kN

Initial velocity is given u = 50 m/sec

From newton's law force is equal to F = ma, here m is mass and a is acceleration

So

As finally nail stops so final velocity v = 0 m/sec

From third equation of motion

So

s = 1000 m

So nail will stop after traveling 1000 m
