The mass of the rider is 85 kg and the mass of the bike is 12.5 kg. How fast does the initial speed need to be to coast the desired 300 m? Is attaining this speed feasible (i.e., can the rider generate this speed by pedaling on horizontal surface)? Assume: •The rider crouches down a bit to reduce drag (as compared to sitting upright) •The rider cannot maintain balance if the speed gets below 0.1 m/s. •All resistance is due to wind dragarrow_forward
