79. •Sports Gabriele Reinsch threw a discus 76.80 m on
July 9, 1988, to set the women's world record. Assume
that she launched the discus with an elevation angle of
45°, and that her hand was 2.0 m over the ground at the
instant of launch. What is the initial speed of the discus
required to achieve that range? (Neglect any effects due
to air resistance.) SSM
