Question
Two persons, pull each other through a massless rope in ′tug of war′ game. Who will win ?


Options
A.one whose weight is more
B.one who pulls the rope with a greater force
C.one who applies more friction force (shear force) on ground
D.one who applies more normal force (compressive force) on ground
Solution
The person applying more frictional force on ground will win because friction is resisting the slipping.
