Physics Work,Power & Energy Level: Misc Level

In common speech, we often use the words energy and power interchangeably as if they were synonyms. However, in physics, they have distinctly different definitions and are not synonymous. Explain the difference between these terms as they are used in physics.

A certain horse says, There s no use in trying to pull that cart. No matter how hard I pull on the cart, it will always pull back on me with exactly the same force. So I can never make it go Explain what is wrong with the horse s reasoning. ( Use free freebody diagrams, showing all the forces involved)I
