During riding a bicycle, the muscular energy of the rider is regenerate into heat and mechanical energy. Kinetic energy provides a rate to the bicycle and warmth energy heats our body.
Muscular energy → mechanical energy + heat
Energy transformation
- While riding a bicycle, the muscular energy of the rider gets transferred into the heat energy and kinetic energy of the bicycle.
- Heat energy heats the rider’s body.
- Kinetic energy provides velocity to the bicycle. The transformation can be shown as Muscular Energy → Kinetic Energy + Heat Energy
- During the transformation, the total energy remains conserved.
