Newton's 2nd law of motion:

                         Force = (mass) x (acceleration)

For this man
on his bike:        Force = (20 kg) x (5 m/s²)

                                    =    100 newtons .

This is NOT the "force produced".

This is the force NEEDED in order to accelerate THAT man
and his bike at THAT rate.  If you don't have something that
can apply THAT force, then you can't create this situation,
and he'll just have to carry on, in the same direction and at
the same speed, without turning, slowing down, or speeding up.

How does vacuum reduce thermal energy transfer
FrozenT [24]
The silver coating on the inner bottle prevents heat transfer by radiation, and the vacuum between its double wall prevents heat moving by convection. The thinness of the glass walls stops heat entering or leaving the flask by conduction.

An electric generator converts kinetic energy into --------<br> energy.
pickupchik [31]

The correct answer to the question is :  Electric energy

EXPLANATION :

As per the question, we have an electric generator.

Before coming into any conclusion, first we have to understand the function of generator.

The generator is attached to the turbine. When the turbine rotates, the generator also starts rotating with it. Thanks to electromagnetic induction, the electricity is produced in the coil attached to the generator when it rotates.

Hence, from above, it is obvious that kinetic energy is converted into electric energy.
