A squid is drifting at 1 mph to the right and squirts out 100 ml of water. The squid plus water weigh 1.5 kilograms. This squid has a growth that narrows and distorts the orifice so that the water exits the squid at an angle of 30 degrees to the direction of travel and at a speed of 80mph. What is the new speed and direction of the squid after it expels the water?
