39. Which one takes more work?
Pushing a box up a ramp into a moving truck or bringing each box up without the ramp?
They both use the same amount of work except the distance is increased over a greater distance by using the ramp which makes it feel like the work is easier.

40. When is work performed?
If you are pushing a car and the car does not move are you still doing work if your muscles are aching and you are sweating and tired?
