two teams are playing tug of war. team a pulls to the right with a force of 450n .team b pulls to the left with a force of 415 n. what is the net force on the rope and what is its direction?

Respuesta :

Explanation:

It is given that, two teams are playing tug of war.

Force applied by Team A, [tex]F_A=450\ N[/tex]

Force applied by Team B, [tex]F_B=415\ N[/tex]

We need to find the net force acting on the rope. It is equal to :

[tex]F_{net}=F_A-F_B[/tex]

[tex]F_{net}=450-415[/tex]

[tex]F_{net}=35\ N[/tex]

So, the net force acting on the rope is 35 N and it is acting toward right. Hence, this is the required solution.

Answer:

20 N to the left
