Question
Two boys are pulling the ends of a rope in a game of tug of war exerting a force of 121 N and 65 N respectively. The net force on the rope is ___ N.
Hint:
When the rope is pulled from opposite sides with 121 N and 65 N forces, the net force will be 56 N.
The correct answer is: 56
- Pulling the rope of tug-war exerts forces in opposite direction.
- When the exerted forces on both sides are not equal, the less force can be subtracted by the greater force to get the net force.
- As the two forces are 121 N and 65 N, the net force will be 56 N ( 121- 65= 56).
