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?

Answer:

the one that went out of the park.

Step-by-step explanation:

work is the total power and distance. so if it went farther, its more, because it takes more distance to make it back to the original spot.
