1. Two physics students, A and B are in the weightlifting room. Student A lifts the 100-N barbell over his head 10 times in one minute. Student B lifts the 100-Newton barbell over his head 10 times in 10 seconds. a. Which student does the most work? None because both students do the same amount of work lifting the same 100N barbell 10 times. b. Which student delivers the most power and why? Explain your answers.Student B delivers the most power because he does the same amount of work in a shorter time.
