John and Daniel are playing tug-of-war together. John is exerting 10 N of force. Daniel is exerting 12 N of force. What is their net force?

Answer: 2 N in Daniel's direction.

Respuesta :

Answer: 2N in Daniel's direction.

Explanation:

Since, both of them are playing a game of tug and war, the resultant(net) force consists of opposing forces.

Net force= 12N-10N = 2N

And the net force is in Daniel's direction because Daniel exerted greater force.
