    A skier, starting from rest, coasts down a slope that makes a 25.0o angle with the horizontal. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the snow and the skis is 0.200. The skier travels along the slope a distance of 11.4 m before skiing off the edge of a cliff. The skier falls a vertical distance of 3.80 m before landing on another downhill slope. Determine the speed with which the skier lands.
