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 u say about the magnitude's and Direction's of the forces being applied to the rope by the two teams at this stage?
Answers
If a stage comes in the game of tug of war where the rope does not move to either sides at all, it means that an equal, balanced force is exerted by both the teams.
Magnitude
The magnitude of the force exerted by both the teams is equal. This creating a balanced and the overall net force is 0.
Direction
The forces of equal magnitude is exerted from both sides. Only under these circumstances that the net force becomes 0.
Extra Information
When will there be a change in the movement of the rope?
✔ The rope will not change its direction unless the force becomes unbalanced. That is, unless one of the teams increase the force exerted or decreases the force provided, there will not be any change in the movement of the rope at all.
What are balanced and unbalanced forces?
✔Balanced Forces: Forces acting from opposite directions with equal magnitude are known as balanced forces.
Unbalanced Forces: Forces acting from opposite directions with unequal magnitudes are known as unbalanced forces.
Answer:
The forces are same that's why the resulting net force is zero
Hope it helps
