Question

explain how each of Newton's Laws effect a game of Tug Of War

Answer 1

The game of tug of war is a good example of each of Newton's laws.

When the game starts, both the sides are pulling the rope and neither side is moving. The force on the rope is same on each side. This proves the 1st law which states that every object in uniform state of motion tends to remain in that state of motion unless an external force is applied to it.

Once one side pulling on the rope exerts more force and therefore more pull, the other side has to increase their pull to try and get the rope back. This is Newton’s second law of motion which mathematically equates force as mass times acceleration.

Finally, the rope is resisting your pull and pulling back while you are pulling. This is Newton’s third law of motion which states that every action has equal and opposite reaction.
