A block slides down a frictionless inclined ramp. If the ramp angle is 19.0° and the length of it is 4.45 m  find the speed of the block as it reaches the end of the ramp, assuming it started sliding from rest at the top. (ramp angle is the angle that the ramp made with the horizontal line, the length is measured along the ramp), g=9.8m/s2, the block has a mass of 9.3 kg.
