Question

A glider is gliding through the air at a height of 416 meters with a speed of 45.2 m/s. The glider

Answer 1

There's not enough information to find an answer.

I think the idea here is that in descending (416 - 278) = 138 meters,
the glider gives up some gravitational potential energy, which
becomes kinetic energy at the lower altitude.  This is all well and
good, but we can't calculate the difference in potential energy
without knowing the mass of the glider.
