An object of mass $10 \,kg$ is projected from the ground with a speed of $40 \,m/s$ at an angle of $60^{\circ}$ with the horizontal. The rate of change of momentum of the object one second after projection in $SI$ units is ........ [Take $g = 9.8 \,m/s^2$]

$A$ system consists of three masses $m_1, m_2$ and $m_3$ connected by a string passing over a pulley $P$. The mass $m_1$ hangs freely and $m_2$ and $m_3$ are on a rough horizontal table (the coefficient of friction $= \mu$). The pulley is frictionless and of negligible mass. The downward acceleration of mass $m_1$ is (Assume $m_1 = m_2 = m_3 = m$)
