![**Physics Problem: Squid Recoil and Frictional Work**
**Problem Statement:**
(a) A 5.50 kg squid initially at rest ejects 0.250 kg of fluid with a velocity of 10.1 m/s. What is the recoil velocity (in m/s) of the squid if the ejection is done in 0.100 s, and there is a 5.20 N frictional force opposing the squid's movement? (Enter the magnitude.)
\[ \text{Result: } 0.376 \, \text{m/s} \]
(b) How much energy (in J) is lost to work done against friction?
\[ \text{Result: } 0.21 \, \text{J} \]
**Explanation:**
1. **Recoil Velocity Calculation (a):**
- Mass of squid (\(m_1\)): 5.50 kg
- Mass of ejected fluid (\(m_2\)): 0.250 kg
- Velocity of ejected fluid (\(v_2\)): 10.1 m/s
- Frictional force opposing movement (\(f\)): 5.20 N
- Time duration of ejection (\(\Delta t\)): 0.100 s
Applying the conservation of momentum principle:
\[
m_1 v_1' = m_2 v_2
\]
\[
v_1' = \frac{m_2 v_2}{m_1}
\]
Where \(v_1'\) is the recoil velocity of the squid.
2. **Energy Lost to Work Against Friction (b):**
- Work done against friction (\(W_f\)): \( f \times d \)
Where \(d\) is the distance travelled during the recoil, which can be calculated using:
\[
d = v_1' \times \Delta t
\]
**Calculations:**
For part (a),
\[
v_1' = \frac{0.250 \, \text{kg} \times 10.1 \, \text{m/s}}{5.50 \, \text{kg}} \approx 0.459 \, \text{m/s}
\]
Since there is a frictional force acting on the squid during the](/v2/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcontent.bartleby.com%2Fqna-images%2Fquestion%2Fc60fc3dd-1ac3-4d9e-b80d-dba4849839ee%2F255ee768-4727-44c9-bf44-eb15b202370c%2Fw8ursvg_processed.png&w=3840&q=75)
