Work Done by Cyclist

Easy Physics Work And Energy

A cyclist is traveling along a straight path. The cyclist is applying a constant force while pedaling, resulting in the bike accelerating from rest to a speed of 12 m/s over a distance of 36 m. The work done by the cyclist on the bike can be calculated using the work-energy principle, which states that the work done is equal to the change in kinetic energy of the cyclist. Assume the mass of the cyclist and the bike combined is 70 kg.

Using this information, what is the work done by the cyclist?
