Collaboration in science is important because if only one scientist does an experiment, and gets a result, he/she could have messed. So this is where collaboration comes in. A few other scientists could try the experiment, and if they get the same answers, the result may be proven correct.
Hope this helped!
The longer you spend reading and thinking about this question,
the more defective it appears.
-- In each case, the amount of work done is determined by the strength
of
the force AND by the distance the skateboard rolls <em><u>while you're still
</u></em>
<em><u>applying the force</u>. </em>Without some more or different information, the total
distance the skateboard rolls may or may not tell how much work was done
to it.<em>
</em>
-- We know that the forces are equal, but we don't know anything about
how far each one rolled <em>while the force continued</em>. All we know is that
one force must have been removed.
-- If one skateboard moves a few feet and comes to a stop, then you
must have stopped pushing it at some time before it stopped, otherwise
it would have kept going.
-- How far did that one roll while you were still pushing it ?
-- Did you also stop pushing the other skateboard at some point, or
did you stick with that one?
-- Did each skateboard both roll the same distance while you continued pushing it ?
I don't think we know enough about the experimental set-up and methods
to decide which skateboard had more work done to it.
