Answer

Please see the work below.

Work Step by Step

We know that $P=\frac{mgh}{t}$ $\implies P=\frac{mgdsin(\theta)}{t}$ $P=mgsin(\theta)(\frac{d}{t})$ $P=mgsin(\theta)(v)$ This can be rearranged as: $v=\frac{P}{mgsin(\theta)}$ We plug in the known values to obtain: $v=\frac{35000}{(1750)(9.8)sin(4.5)}$ $v=26\frac{m}{s}$
