nails have pointed tips so that large pressure is exerted at the pointed tips and can be driven into easily

the tip of a nail is kept pointed by keeping in mind the principle that pressure is inversely proportionate to the area in contact. The pointed tip covers a less area, further creating a situation of more pressure, so that we could easily pierce it through the wall.
