QUESTION:

Air-track gliders with masses \(300 g, 400 g,\) and \(200 g\) are lined up and held in place with lightweight springs compressed between them. All three are released at once. The \(200 g\) glider flies off to the right while the \(300 g\) glider goes left. Their position-versus-time graphs, as measured by motion detectors, are shown in Figure P9.36. What are the direction (right or left) and speed of the \(400 g\) glider that was in the middle?
