In waterskiing, a "garage sale" occurs when a skier loses control and falls and waterskis fly in different directions. In one particular incident, a novice skier was skimming across the surface of the water at 22.0 m/s when he lost control. One ski, with a mass of 1.50 kg, flew off at an angle of 12.0° to the left of the initial direction of the skier with a speed of 25.0 m/s. The other identical ski flew from the crash at an angle of 5.00° to the right with a speed of 21.0 m/s. What was the velocity of the 61.0-kg skier? Give a speed and a direction relative to the initial velocity vector.
