Answer:

2.24kJ

Explanation:

Kinetic energy is the energy that a object possesses due to its motion.

Let kinetic Energy (KE),

Here both the Bicycle and the girl is travelling at the given speed , therefore we have to consider the total mass

according ti the definition ,

[tex]KE=\frac{1}{2}*mass*velocity^{2}  \\=\frac{1}{2}*(50+20)kg*(8ms^{-1} )^{2}\\  =2240J\\=2.24kJ[/tex]
