Determine the his takeoff speed

Reference no: EM13311327

In 1993, Javier Sotomayor set a world record of 2.45 m in the men's outdoor high jump. He is 193 cm tall. By treating his body as a point located at half his height, and given that he left the ground a horizontal distance from the bar of 1.5 m at a takeoff angle of 65 degrees, determine his takeoff speed. Neglect any effects due to air resistance.
