To find the net force on the rope in the tug of war, we need to subtract one team's force from the other team's force since they are pulling in opposite directions.
Team A pulls to the right with a force of 450 N, and Team B pulls to the left with a force of 415 N.
Calculating the net force:
\[ \text{Net Force} = \text{Force of Team A} - \text{Force of Team B} \] \[ \text{Net Force} = 450 , \text{N} - 415 , \text{N} = 35 , \text{N} \]
The net force is 35 N to the right.
So, the net force on the rope is 35 N and its direction is to the right.
