Answer 1

HEYA USER !!

HERE IS UR ANSWER --

WHEN A BLACKSMITH BEATS AN IRON PIECE , THE SHAPE OF THE IRON WILL CHANGE BECAUSE IRON IS A METAL AND ACCORDING TO THE PROPERTIES OF METAL , IT HAVE MALLEABILITY WHICH MEANS WHEN A METAL IS BEATEN , IT BECOMES  THIN CHANGING ITS SHAPE .

BUT IF WE BEAT A WOODEN LOG IT WILL BREAK BECAUSE WOODEN LOG IS NON METAL AND A NON METAL DOESNT AQUIRE A PROPERTY OF MALLEABILITY.

HOPE IT HELPS ........

Answer 2

The shape of the iron will change because iron is a metal and according to the propety of metals if it is malleable it changes it's shape and becomes thin sheets. THE PROPERT BY VIRTUE OF WHICH METALS CAN BE BEATEN INTO THIN SHEETS IS CALLED MALLEABILITY.

However, we cannot expect a similar change in a wood log because wood log is a non-metal and non-metals do not show the propery of non-metals. They are brittle.
