Question
**Physics Problem: Force and Motion**

Two boxes of different mass are at rest. If both boxes are acted upon by equal force, which of the following statements is then true?

- ○ If both boxes are pushed for the same amount of time, then both boxes will have the same final momentum.
- ○ If both boxes are pushed the same distance, then both boxes will have the same final momentum.
- ○ If both boxes are pushed the same amount of time, then the lighter box will have the smaller final kinetic energy.
- ○ If both boxes are pushed the same amount of time, then the heavier box will have the greater final kinetic energy.
- ○ The change in kinetic energy is dependent on the amount of time each box is pushed.
