The cause of increases in kinetic energy when a man starts running without his feet slipping on ground is asked from two students.

Ricky : Cause of increase in kinetic energy is work done by friction force without which he cannot run.
Anil : Cause of increase in kinetic energy is work done by internal forces of the body.
