A batter hits two baseballs with the same force. One hits the ground near third base. The other is a home run out of the park. Where was there more work done?

The ball that went out of the park shows more work because the force applied was greater.

The ball that hit near third base shows more work because it hit the ground much harder.

The ball that went out of the park shows more work because the distance was greater.

The ball that hit near third base shows more work because the force applied was greater.

It is C or something else? Really need to get this right. Thank you!

Respuesta :

if the forces are equal, then the amount of work is dependent on the distance od C
It would be c because hitting it out of the park has the greater distance to it .
