Answer:

 Mass of bike = 38 kg.

Explanation:

Kinetic energy is given by the expression, KE = \frac{1}{2} mv^2, where m is the mass and v is the velocity.

Here speed of child riding bike = 6 m/s

Mass of child = 30 kg

Total kinetic energy = 1224 J

Let the mass of bike be, m kg

So, total mass of child and bike = (m + 30) kg

Substituting,

  1224 = \frac{1}{2}* (m+30)*6^2\\ \\ m+30=68\\ \\ m=38kg

So, mass of bike = 38 kg.

Why can friction make observing Newton's first law of motion difficult?
Kamila [148]
The law says things travel in a straight line at constant speed unless acted upon by a force.  But friction is a force but it can't be seen easily other than its effect, which is to bring the object to rest in seeming violation of the 1st law.
