Problem
Two identical carts are each pulled 4.0m along a straight track by the same constant force magnitude F. For Cart A, the force is directed horizontally; for Cart B, the force is directed 60∘ above the horizontal. Rank the magnitude of the work done on each cart (Cart A vs.
Cart B) and briefly justify your ranking.
