Two blocks with mass m2 > m1 are pulled as shown along rough horizontal surfaces with the same coefficient of friction. Both are pulled at constant speed, but v2 < v1. Which tension force does more work moving the block a distance D along the surface?
 
  1.T1
  2.T2
  3.Neither; both do zero work
  4.Neither; both do the same amount of negative work
  5.Neither; both do the same amount of positive work
  6.Impossible to determine without knowing the masses
  7.Impossible to determine without knowing the speeds
  8.Impossible to determine for some other reason
