Question

Two people are playing tug of war. One person pulls to the right with 32 N of force. The other person pulls to the left with 37 N of force. How strong is the net force and in which direction?

Answer 1

The net force is 5 N and to the left.

Step-by-step explanation:

37 N - 32 N = 5 N and since there is a stronger pull from the rope moves towards the left so the direction of motion is left.
