Two college teams, A and B, are playing a game of tug of war. Team A applies a force of 103 newtons, but the rope does not move

Kipish [7]

Given that the rope is not moving (acceleration is zero), by the second Law of Newton (F=m*a), the net force acting on the rope is zero.

Then, the force applied by the team B equals the force applied by the tema A: 103 N.
