An astronaut in his space suit and with a propulsion unit (empty of its gas propellant) strapped to his back has a mass of 146 kg. the astronaut begins a space walk at rest, with a completely filled propulsion unit. during the space walk, the unit ejects some gas with a velocity of 32 m/s. as a result, the astronaut recoils with a velocity of 0.39 m/s. after the gas is ejected, the mass of the astronaut (now wearing a partially empty propulsion unit) is 165 kg. what percentage of the gas was ejected from the completely filled propulsion unit?
