what is the acceleration of the gliders?
physics help asked:
two air-track gliders m1 and m2 are joined together with a light string. a constant horizontal force of 7 N to the right is applied to mass m2. if m1=1.5kg and m2=.5kg, what is the acceleration of the gliders?

the cake is a lie..
F{net} = Mass{net} * Acceleration{net}
7N = (1.5 + .5)kg * A{net}
A{net} = 7N/2kg
A{net} = 3.5m/s^2
the trick to this question is to realize that the string doesn’t really affect the system, and that the system would act the same if it were a single mass
