An astronaut in a space suit is motionless in outer space. The propulsion unit strapped to her back ejects some gas with a velocity of 50 m/s. The astronaut recoils with a velocity of 1.0 m/s. If the mass of the astronaut and space suit after the gas is ejected is 120 kg, the mass of the gas ejected is

• 1.0 kg.

• 1.9 kg.

• 2.4 kg.

• 3.00 kg.
