14.37 • A 175-g glider on a horizontal, frictionless air track is attached to a fixed ideal spring with force constant 155 N/m. At the instant you make measurements on the glider, it is moving at 0.815 m/s and is 3.00 cm from its equilibrium point. Use energy conservation to find (a) the amplitude of the motion and (b) the maximum speed of the glider. (C) What is the angular frequency of the oscillations?

Two gliders are set in motion on a horizontal air track. A massless spring of force constant k is attached to the back end of the second glider. As shown in the figure, the first glider, of mass m1, moves to the right with speed v1, and the second glider, of mass m2, moves more slowly to the right with speed v2. When glider 1 touches the spring, superglue instantly and permanently makes it stick to its end of the spring. In terms of v1, v2, m1, m2, find the speed v of the system of the spring and both gliders when the spring is at maximum compression and (b) the maximum compression distant x_max of the spring. The motion after the gliders become attached consists of the combination of (1) the constant-velocity motion of the center of mass of the two-glider system found in part (a) and (2) simple harmonic motion of the gliders relative to the center of mass

A glider on an air track moves in the direction with a constant acceleration. It has two flags, each exactly 0.02 m long, whith the midpoints of the flags separated by 0.150 m. The first flag interrupts the photogate timer for a time 0.058 s, and the second flag interrups the photogate time for a time 0.047 s.

What was the average velocity of the glider during the interval when the first flag was interrupted.
What was the average velocity of the glider during the interval when the second flag was interrupted.
Approximately how much time elapsed between the passage of the first flag and the passage of the second flag.
Calculate the approximate acceleration of the glider.
