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?

in the negative direction.

Explanation:

The physical modelled is analyzed by using the Principle of Moment Conservation and Impact Theorem. Let consider that fluid travels in the positive direction:

Now, the recoil velocity of the squid is obtained

there are no components of a physical goal mentioned on the list of choices that you've provided.
