Ignoring friction and wind resistance, which one of the following statements is true?

- The amount of work done by Joe is greater than the amount of work done by Bob, and the avg power exerted by Joe is greater than that of Bob

-Bob and Joe exerted the same amount of work, and the avg power of each cyclist was also the same

-the avg power exerted by Bob and Joe was the same, but Joe exerted more work in getting there n

- the amount of work done by Joe is = to the amoung of work done by Bob, but the avg power exerted by Joe is greater than that of Bob
