Work done problem 20


Two men, X and Y, try to move identical heavy boxes, P and Q. Man X tries to push box P along the floor. The box does not move because an object is in the way. Man Y lifts box Q from the floor onto a shelf.




Which man does the most work on their box, and which box gains the most energy?
