Ek=kinetic energy  (J)
m=mass of object (Kg)
v=speed of object  (m/s)

We have the following formula:

Ek=(1/2)mv²   ⇒ m=2(Ek)/v²

In this case:
m= mass of the child + mass of the bike
m=30 kg + m₁       (m₁=mass of the bike).

We would have to modify our formula like this:

m=2(Ek)/v²
m=30 kg + m₁


30 kg +m₁=2(Ek)/v²
m₁=2(Ek)/v²-30 kg

We have the following data:

v=0.6 m/s
Ek=12.4J
m=30 Kg + m₁

Therefore:

m₁=2(Ek)/v²  - 30 kg
m₁=2(12.4 J)/(0.6 m/s)²  - 30 kg
m₁=24.8 J/(0.36 m²/s²)  -30 kg
m₁=68.89 Kg - 30 kg
m₁=38.89 Kg

Answer: the mass of the bike is 38.89 Kg.

How is the direction of a vector affected when it is multiplied by a scalar?
pantera1 [17]
The direction of a vector multiplied by a scalar is only affected if the scalar is negative, in which case the vector will now be in the opposite direction. If the scalar is positive, the vector will only change in magnitude
