- Team x applies a force of 10000 N over a distance of 50 meters.
- Work done by Team x = Force × Distance = 10000 N × 50 m = 500000 J.
- Team y applies a force of 8000 N over a distance of 50 meters.
- Work done by Team y = Force × Distance = 8000 N × 50 m = 400000 J.
- Total work done in the tug-of-war = Work by Team x + Work by Team y = 500000 J + 400000 J = 900000 J.
