Professional Application

(a) A 5.00-kg squid initially at rest ejects 0.250-kg of fluid with a velocity of 10.0 m/s. What is the recoil velocity of the squid if the ejection is done in 0.100 s and there is a 5.00-N frictional force opposing the squid’s movement. (b) How much energy is lost to work done against friction?

QUESTION:

 Problem 61PE

Professional Application

(a) A 5.00-kg squid initially at rest ejects 0.250-kg of fluid with a velocity of 10.0 m/s. What is the recoil velocity of the squid if the ejection is done in 0.100 s and there is a 5.00-N frictional force opposing the squid’s movement. (b) How much energy is lost to work done against friction?

ANSWER:

Solution 61PE

Step 1 of 7

Squid of mass is initially at rest, ejects a fluid with mass with the velocity of . Here we need to calculate the recoiling velocity of the squid if the ejection is done for the time interval of including the frictional force  that opposes the movement of squid. Also, we need to calculate the energy lost to work against the friction.

Given data,

Mass of squid,

Mass of fluid,

Initial velocity of squid and fluid,  (both are at rest)

Fluid is ejected with velocity,

Friction force,  

Time interval ,

To find,

  1. Recoiling velocity of the squid
  2. Energy lost to work against the friction,
