Question

Scallops eject water from their shells to provide a thrust force. The graph shows a smoothed graph of actual data for the initial motion of a $25 \mathrm{g}$ scallop speeding up to escape a predator. What is the magnitude of the net force needed to achieve this motion? How does this force compare to the $0.25 \mathrm{N}$ weight of the scallop?
