$A$ girl of mass $35 \, kg$ sits on a trolley of mass $5 \, kg$. The trolley is given an initial velocity of $4 \, m \, s^{-1}$ by applying a force. The trolley comes to rest after covering a distance of $16 \, m$. $(a)$ What is the work done on the trolley? $(b)$ What is the work done by the girl?

  • A
    Work done on the trolley is $-320 \, J$
  • B
    Work done by the girl is $0 \, J$
  • C
    Work done on the trolley is $160 \, J$
  • D
    Work done by the girl is $320 \, J$
