Question

In a tug of war; when the two teams are pulling the rope, a stage comes when the rope does not move to either side at all. What can you say about the magnitudes and directions of the forces being applied to the rope by the two teams at
this stage?

Answer 1

Answer:

if the rope does not move to either sides then the force applied by both the teams are equal

Answer 2

Answer:

no force is applied at this time

Explanation:

According to Newton's third law, each team pulls the opposite team with equal force in a tug of war. ... When both teams pull in opposite directions, they often don't exert equal forces; the stronger team exerts a larger force. So the two forces don't balance each other and the rope accelerates towards the stronger team
