Squids and octopuses propel themselves by expelling water. they do this by keeping water in a cavity and then suddenly contracting the cavity to force out the water through an opening. a 6.50-kg squid (including the water in the cavity) at rest suddenly sees a dangerous predator. (a) if the squid has 1.75 kg of water in its cavity, at what speed must it expel this water suddenly to achieve a speed of 2.50 m/s to escape the predator? ignore any drag effects of the surrounding water. (b) how much kinetic energy does the squid create by this maneuver?

Astudent throws a water balloon with speed v0 from a height h = 1.76 m at an angle θ = 21° above the horizontal toward a target on the ground. the target is located a horizontal distance d = 9.5 m from the student’s feet. assume that the balloon moves without air resistance. use a cartesian coordinate system with the origin at the balloon's initial position. (a) what is the position vector, rtarge t, that originates from the balloon's original position and terminates at the target? put this in terms of h and d, and represent it as a vector using i and j. (b) in terms of the variables in the problem, determine the time, t, after the launch it takes the balloon to reach the target. your answer should not include h. (c) create an expression for the balloon's vertical position as a function of time, y(t), in terms of t, vo, g, and θ. (d) determine the magnitude of the balloon's initial velocity, v0, in meters per second, by eliminating t from the previous two expressions.
