A fisherman throws the anchor off her boat at an angle of 3.0°above the horizontal. If the anchor weighs 4.0 times as much as she does and the boat moves with speed 3.0 m/s during the launch, how fast did she throw the anchor? (Solve for her frame of reference. Assume the mass of the boat is negligible.)
