Q1. The 1994 Winter Olympics included the aerials competition in skiing. In this event skiers speed down a ramp that slopes sharply upward at the end. The sharp upward slope launches them into the air, where they perform acrobatic maneuvers. In the women's competition, the end of the typical launch ramp is fixed 65° above the horizontal. With this launch angle, the skier attains a height of 15.0 m above the end of the ramp. What is the skier's launch speed?
