The Attempt at a Solution
I am confused as to how to approach this problem. so it looks like squidwards mass is changing from 1.2kg to 1.1kg after he shoots out the water from his butt. I know that momentum is conserved so
1.1*2.7 - 1.2*0.6 should = 0.
this leaves -2.25kgm/s left. so then i would have to divide by his mass? so his mass is currently 1.1kg which gives a speed of 2.0454545m/s
