Question
Use Newton's Second law to write equations of motion for each of the two masses. Make sure you use the coordinate
system given in the figure in the introduction. Use notation so that's it's clear which object you're examining, for example
call ag the acceleration of the glider and an the acceleration of the hanging weight.
The acceleration of the glider and the hanging mass are related since they are connected by a string. The relevant relationship is
aGz = -ahy - The reason for the minus sign is that when the glider accelerations in the +x direction, the hanging mass
accelerates in the -y direction.
Using this fact, and combining the two equations you wrote in the previous part, solve for the acceleration of the glider in terms
of the masses m, , mG , and other known constants.
