A particle \(P\) of mass \(m\) is attached to the rim of the hemisphere. The system rests in equilibrium with the rim of the hemisphere horizontal and \(P\) at the point on the rim that is closest to the inclined plane (see diagram). Given that the coefficient of friction between the plane and the hemisphere is \(\frac { 1 } { 2 }\), show that

1. \(\tan \alpha \leqslant \frac { 1 } { 2 }\),
2. \(m \leqslant \frac { M ( 1 + \sqrt { } 5 ) } { 4 }\).
