The same force is applied to two skateboards. One rolls across the room and the other moves a few feet and comes to a stop. Where was there more work done?

The skateboard that traveled the shorter distance shows more work because there was more resistance.
The skateboard that traveled the longer distance shows more work because it was lighter.
The skateboard that traveled further shows more work because the distance was greater.
The skateboard that traveled the shorter distance shows more work because the force was greater.
