Explanation:

Let u is the initial speed of the bike. Finally, the bike stops, v = 0

Deceleration of the bike, a=-1\ m/s^2

Time, t = 5

Distance covered, s = 62.5 m

We need to find the initial speed of the bike. Using third equation of motion as :

v^2-u^2=2as

-u^2=2\times (-1)\times 62.5

u = 11.18 m/s

So, the initial speed of the bike is 11.18 m/s. Hence, this is the required solution.
