    Yes, it is Reasonable.

    Explanation:

    The problem states that by using a new sensor, the result is 60 million dynes.

    Converting the force into Newtons, by using the formula,

    1 newton = 10⁵ dynes,

    i. e, 1 million dynes = 10 newtons.

    we get,

    60 million dynes = 60 x 10 newtons = 600 newtons.

    The result using a new sensor is reasonable because atmosphere exerts a force of about 10 newtons on us and 600 newtons is just 60 times of it.

    Thus 600 N can be applied by the hammer on the nail and it is reasonable.
