Yes, you can pedal an electric bike. Most electric bikes require some pedaling to activate the motor, and the level of pedaling required will vary depending on the type of e-bike that you have. Some e-bikes have a pedal-assist feature that provides additional power when you pedal, making it easier to ride uphill or against strong headwinds (source: [Discerning Cyclist](https://discerningcyclist.com/do-you-need-to-pedal-electric-bike/)). However, there are also some electric bikes that come with a throttle like on a motorbike, which allows you to ride without pedaling at all (source: [Ebike Answers](https://ebikeanswers.com/do-you-have-to-pedal-an-electric-bike/)).

Yes, you can totally pedal an electric bike with the only difference from a traditional bike is that riders could give minimal effort in pedaling and the electric bike would still go as fast.
Most commonly, an electric bike could have a throttle for riders to switch into when they get tired of pedaling. There are also electric bikes that have a pedal assist system that would help riders to easily pedal at a faster speed or to go on uphill terrains.
