5 A particle \(P\) is projected with speed \(u \mathrm {~ms} ^ { - 1 }\) from the top of a smooth inclined plane of length \(2 d\) metres. After its projection \(P\) moves downwards along a line of greatest slope with acceleration \(4 \mathrm {~ms} ^ { - 2 }\). At the instant 3 s after projection \(P\) has moved half way down the plane. \(P\) reaches the foot of the plane 5 s after the instant of projection.
- Form two simultaneous equations in \(u\) and \(d\), and hence calculate the speed of projection of \(P\) and the length of the plane.
- Find the inclination of the plane to the horizontal.
- Given that the contact force exerted on \(P\) by the plane has magnitude 6 N , calculate the mass of \(P\).
