Question

evaluating a bicycle going uphill bridget is riding her bicycle up a hill. which statements are correct? select five options. bridget is transferring energy to the bicycle. the bicycle is using energy to do work. bridget has kinetic energy. the bicycle has potential energy. bridget has nuclear energy. the bicycle has mechanical energy.

Explanation:

• Bridget is transferring energy to the bicycle as she pedals.
• The bicycle is using energy to do work (moving uphill against gravity).
• Bridget has kinetic energy because she is in motion.
• The bicycle has potential energy due to its height on the hill.
• The bicycle has mechanical energy (sum of kinetic and potential energy).
• Bridget does not have nuclear energy (not relevant to this context).

Answer:

Bridget is transferring energy to the bicycle.
The bicycle is using energy to do work.
Bridget has kinetic energy.
The bicycle has potential energy.
The bicycle has mechanical energy.
