For my assigment, I was asked to design a electric motorbike that has a peformance equal to Honda CBR1000 Fireblade which has a petrol engine. A part of the the assignment is to calculate " An estimate of maximum Power your new motor will need to generate to match the Honda’s performance." I can make the assumption, apart from changing the motor, everything else is going to stay the same so the fairing,the rider and etc they're gonna be the same for the two bikes. So can you please tell me how I can calculate that which information would I need ?

What trigonometric identity may be used to summarize an equation for calculating tension force (the long equation you'll use before replacing the values)? What do you think the role of mass is in determining the net acceleration of an item rolling down an incline? Friction is a significant factor. Why is the normal force no longer equal to the weight of all things on an incline?
