A train traveling at 50 miles per hour will have more kinetic energy than a bicycle traveling at 15 miles per hour. Kinetic energy can be calculated as the product of mass and velocity divided by 2. The formula is as follows - KE - 1/2 * mass * velocity. Since a train is heavier and speedier than a bicycle, it will have more kinetic energy.
