Two ice skaters of weight 60 kg and 50 kg are holding the two ends of a rope.The rope is taut. The 60 kg man pulls the rope with 20 N force. What will be the force exerted by the
rope on the other person? What will be their respective acceleration?

The tension is propogated and hence the force across the string remains as 20N which is also the force applied on the second man
The respective acceleration will be
1: 20/60 = 1/3
2: 20/50 = 2/5

1.mass = 60 kg,F = 20 N
F=m×a
20=60×a
a=20/60
a=2/6=0.3 m/s²
2.mass = 50kg,F = 20 N
F=m×a
20=50×a
a=20/50
a=2/5=0.4 m/s²
