The track for this racing event was designed so that the riders jump off the slope at 30°, from a height of 1m. During the race, it was observed that the rider remained in mid air for 1.5 s. Determine the speed a which he was traveling off the slope, the horizontal distance he travels before striking the ground, and the maximum height he attains. Neglect the size of the bike and rider.
