An ice glider, that has a mass of 1640 kg, is initially moving at 20 m/s Nw. A wind accelerates the ginuet 5 m/s 20° E of N for eight second. Then the wind shifts to 48° E of N accelerating the glider at 1.8 m/s for 11 seconds. 1) What is the glider's initial kinetic energy? 2) What is the glider's velocity at t=8 s? 3) How much energy did the wind transfer to the glider during the 8 s?

ghder, that has a mass of 1640 kg, is initially moving at 20 m/s Nw. A wind accelerates the glider
t 2.5 m/s 20° E of N for eight second. Then the wind shifts to 48° E of N accelerating the glider at
1.8 m/s for 11 seconds.
1) What is the glider's initial kinetic energy?
2) What is the glider's velocity at t= 8 s?
3) How much energy did the wind transfer to the glider during the 8 s?
4) What was the glider's velocity after the 11 s the second wind
gust was active?
5) How much energy did the wind transfer to the glider during the 19 s?
6) What was the glider's average speed fromt = 0 s to t = 19 s?
7) What was the glider's displacement from t=0s to t= 19 s?
8) What was the glider's average velocity from t 8 s to t 19 s?
9) What was the glider's final kinetic energy?
10) A student contends that the glider will have the largest force at t= 19 s since it has the most kinetic
energy at that time. Is this contention reasonable? Explain.
