Third Law: The mutual forces of action and reaction between two bodies are equal, opposite and collinear. This means that whenever a first body exerts a force F on a second body, the second body exerts a force −F on the first body. F and −F are equal in magnitude and opposite in direction. This law is sometimes referred to as the action-reaction law, with F called the "action" and −F the "reaction".

Is tug of war an example of the third law of motion?
No. It's actually an example of Newton's 2nd law of motion,in its vector form.
In tug of war you pull on a rope with 3 newtons and your friend on your side pulls on the rope with 8 newtons What is the force the other team will have to overcome to win?
The force the other team will have to overcome to win is the sum of the forces exerted by you and your friend, which is 3 newtons + 8 newtons = 11 newtons. So, the other team will have to exert a force greater than 11 newtons to win the tug of war.
What is the unit scientists use when measuring force?
The SI unit of force is the 'newton'. 1 Newton = 1 kilogram-meter per second2 A strain gauge is a common measuring device and is highly portable, which is a good thing when you wish to measure the pulling force of a harbour tug, the lifting capacity of a crane, or the mass of a truck on the highway.

If a force of two team playing tug of war is 500 newtons what would be the greatest acceleration?
Interesting and very difficult to put into x amount of letters.
What are examples of balanced force and unbalanced force?
Examples: Balanced: Two kids are playing tug of war. They are both exerting 4 Newtons of force. (Balanced forces=0 Newtons) Unbalanced: Two kids are playing tug of war. One kid is exerting 6 Newtons of force, the other is exerting 7 Newtons of force. (Unbalanced forces=1 or more Newtons difference[7N-6N=1N) Just because the forces are balanced, doesn't mean that they have to be less than the unbalanced forces. N=Newton
