Verified by Experts

While riding a bicyle, the muscular energy of the rider gets transferred into heat energy and kinetice energy of the bicycle. Heat energy heats the rider's body. Kinetic energy provides a velocity to the bicycle. The transformation can be shown as :
Muscular Energy `rarr` Kinetic Energy + Heat Energy
During the transformation. the total energy remains conserved.
