Lesson 1: Introduction to Forces

Question 15 • [HSPHY] Physics Sem 1 (26-27)

Two teams are playing tug of war. Team A pulls to the right with a force of 450 N. Team B pulls to the left with a force of 415 N.

Answer
A
35 N to the right
B
35 N to the left
C
865 N to the right
D
865 N to the left

Explanation

The teams pull in opposite directions, so subtract the smaller force from the larger: 450 N − 415 N = 35 N. Team A pulls harder, so the net force points to the right. The correct choice is 35 N to the right.
