    Givent that,

    The required force to pull the peddle is

    F = 14N,

    The peddle has a mass of

    m = 0.08kg

    To a distance of 0.1m

    d = 0.1m

    Using conservation of energy

    The workdone by pulling the peddle to a certain distance is equal to the kinectic energy of the peddle

    Work done = K. E

    F * d = ½ mv²

    14 * 0.1 = ½ * 0.08 * v²

    1.4 = 0.04 v²

    v² = 1.4 / 0.04

    v² = 35

    v = √35

    v = 5.92 m/s

    The velocity of the peddle is 5.92 m/s
