Solar energy transfers to the biker, the biker transfers muscular energy to the pedals, the pedals transfer mechanical energy to the bike itself, the bike transfers mechanical energy to the wheels, and the wheels transfer friction energy to the road, and the bike (it's wheels) moves.

∙ 14y agothe potential energy in the food the rider eats is converted to kenetic threw the muscles in your legs. also the potential energy of any kind of incline can move a bike. nearly all energy can be traced back to the suns energy though.

When you pedal a bike you use what type of energy?
You use chemical energy.
What type of energy is a moving bike?
Kinetic.
What type of energy is it when you move a handle or bike pedal and the gears or bike tires keep moving?
it is called mechanical energy.
What type of energy does a motor bike give out?
very very bad energy
What type of energy conversion takes place when riding a bike turns on the headlight?
The energy produced is obviously light energy. The energy is provided by the bicycle's kinetic energy.
When you pedal a bike you use what type of energy?
You use chemical energy.
What type of energy is a moving bike?
Kinetic.
What type of energy occurs when people ride a bike?
kinetic energy
What type of energy is it when you move a handle or bike pedal and the gears or bike tires keep moving?
it is called mechanical energy.
What type of energy does a motor bike give out?
very very bad energy
Does a bike use mechanical or thermal energy?
it has both
What type of energy conversion takes place when riding a bike turns on the headlight?
The energy produced is obviously light energy. The energy is provided by the bicycle's kinetic energy.
A bike rider approaches a hill with a speed of 8.5 ms the total mass of the bike and the rider is 85 kgit has a kinetic energy of 3.1x103 Joules No frictionWhat height will the bike if come stop?
You can use the formula for kinetic energy to verify the total kinetic energy (KE = 0.5mv2). Then, assuming all the energy is converted to (gravitational) potential energy, use the formula for potential energy, and solve for height. (PE = mgh)
How does a Bike gets energy from the sun?
A bike does not get energy from the sun. A bike takes kinetic energy from you and makes it into a proportional amount of kinetic energy depending on what gear you are on.
What process does your body use to get the energy it needs for running or for riding a bike?
cellular respiration
How do you use energy to make a bike go faster?
You can put more gears in the bicycle.
What type of energy occurs when you hit the brakes on a bike?
i think it is kinetic energy to thermal energy.
