An extreme skier, starting from rest, coasts down a mountain that makes an angle 25.0 degree with the horizontal. The coefficient of kinetic friction between her skis and the snow is 0.200. She coasts for a distance of 10.2 meter before coming to the edge of a cliff. Without slowing down, she skis off the cliff and lands downhill at a point whose vertical distance is 3.40 meter below the edge. Evaluate how fast is she going just before she lands?
