obtained by application of a constant force is given as a function of the time t by the expression Rv (t) = t for Rv (0) = 0 . Assuming that Rv (0) = 0 ; Rr (0) = 0 the position of Rr of the mass point is Rr (t) = · t2 . (0) In the present case the motion is unidimensional and the force produce by a weight of m1 is | RF | = m1 · | Rg | ; m1 · g where g is the acceleration of gravity. If the total mass of the glider is m2 the equation of motion is given by (m2 + m1) · | Ra | = m1 · g
