A space shuttle while travelling at a speed of 4000 km/h with respect to the earth disconnects and ejects a module backward, weighing one fifth of the resudual part. If the shuttle ejects the disconnected module at a speed of 100 km/h with respect to the state of the shuttle before the ejection, find the final velocity of the shuttle.
