Question

tina and her puppy are tugging on a rope, each pulling on opposite ends. when is tina doing work? the entire time she plays with the puppy whenever she pulls the puppy toward her when she holds the rope steady as the puppy pulls it when she lets go of the rope and the puppy pulls it away

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

In physics, work is done when a force causes an object to move in the direction of the force. When Tina pulls the puppy toward her, she applies a force and moves the puppy (the object) in the direction of the force. When she holds the rope steady, there is no displacement in the direction of the force she is applying, so no work is done. When she lets go, she is no longer applying a force. Playing without displacement in the direction of the force also means no - work.

Answer:

whenever she pulls the puppy toward her
