Question

During a game of tug-of-war, two students are pulling on a rope. One student pulls to the left with a force of 35 N, while another student pulls to the right with a force of 35 N. What is the net force being applied to the rope, and in which direction will the rope move?(1 point) Responses 35 N; the rope will move to the right 35 N; the rope will move to the right 70 N; the rope will stay stationary 70 N; the rope will stay stationary 17.5 N; the rope will move up 17.5 N; the rope will move up 0 N; the rope will stay stationary

Answer 1

is this right

Answer 2

The net force being applied to the rope is 0 N. Since the forces applied by the two students are equal and opposite, they cancel each other out resulting in a net force of 0 N. Thus, the rope will stay stationary.

Answer 3

Yes, that is correct. The net force is 0 N, and the rope will stay stationary.
