The independent variable of a glider, if it is an air glider, would be the thermal updrafts available at any flight. Without effective thermals, it makes it difficult for a glider to maintain lift and develop elevation for sustained glides.
When is elastic potential energy stored in a toy glider?
I thought a toy glider did not have any propulsion. Toy airplanes can have an elastic drive, and when this is wound up prior to a flight the drive has potential energy
A moving hang glider has what type of energy?
Kinetic because it is actually moving as well as "potential" energy because it is up in the air and technically falling due to gravity. As it "falls", the potential energy is converted to kinetic energy. At the point in time when the glider lands, all of the potential energy has now been converted to kinetic energy.
When was the glider was invented?

A glider is a light engineless aircraft designed to glide after being towed aloft or launched from a catapult. A glider is also a species of small possum, native to Australia. As its name suggests, it is capable of gliding through the air.
What is the smallest glider in the world?
The Feathertail Glider is the world's smallest glider. It ranges from 65-80 mm in size, with a mass of just 10-14 grams. Its gliding range is up to 25 metres. The Feathertail Glider lives along Australia's eastern coast, from north Queensland to Victoria.
What is the independent variable of a glider?
The independent variable of a glider, if it is an air glider, would be the thermal updrafts available at any flight. Without effective thermals, it makes it difficult for a glider to maintain lift and develop elevation for sustained glides.
Why might a thermal be important to a glider pilot?
To keep the pilot up longer.
