Question

a wire is stretched by two equal and opposite forces 15 N each , then the tension will be?​

Answer 1

Answer:

30 N

Explanation:

opposite pull added to get resultant tension

Answer 2

Answer:

15 N

Explanation:

If two sides of a wire (or a rope or a string) are pulled in opposite directions with equal (but opposite) forces each of magnitude F, then the tension in the string will also be F (and not 2F, as some of the students may think)
