Answer:

 Mass of bike = 38 kg.

Explanation:

Kinetic energy is given by the expression, [tex]KE = \frac{1}{2} mv^2[/tex], where m is the mass and v is the velocity.

Here speed of child riding bike = 6 m/s

Mass of child = 30 kg

Total kinetic energy = 1224 J

Let the mass of bike be, m kg

So, total mass of child and bike = (m + 30) kg

Substituting,

  [tex]1224 = \frac{1}{2}* (m+30)*6^2\\ \\ m+30=68\\ \\ m=38kg[/tex]

So, mass of bike = 38 kg.
