A cyclist is moving up a slope that has a constant gradient. The cyclist takes to climb the slope. The variation with time of the speed of the cyclist is shown in the figure below:
Use the above figure to determine the total distance moved up the slope.
The bicycle and cyclist have a combined mass of . The vertical height through which the cyclist moves is . For the movement of the bicycle and cyclist between and
use the figure above to calculate the change in kinetic energy,
Calculate the change in gravitational potential energy
