Josh will gain 23.18 meter in one minute of this climb.

Explanation:

Velocity of climbing up a steep 24⁰ slope = 0.95 m/s

Time taken = 1 minute = 60 seconds.

Distance traveled along slope = 0.95*60 = 57 m

So elevation = 57*sin 24 = 23.18 meter.

So Josh will gain 23.18 meter in one minute of this climb.
