A morsel of food with a mass of 3.4 g is injected into the esophagus with an initial speed of 2.7 cm/s. On the way down to the stomach, the walls of the esophagus exert an upward resistive force of 2.7 ✕ 10-3 N on the morsel. If the esophagus is 18.0 cm long, with what speed does the morsel of food enter the stomach?
m/s
