\includegraphics[max width=\textwidth, alt={}, center]{b190b8c9-75b0-4ede-913f-cdecdb58180f-2_337_579_842_246} A small body \(P\) of mass 3 kg is at rest at the lowest point of the inside of a smooth hemispherical shell of radius 3.2 m and centre \(O\).
\(P\) is projected horizontally with a speed of \(u \mathrm {~ms} ^ { - 1 }\). When \(P\) first comes to instantaneous rest \(O P\) makes an angle of \(60 ^ { \circ }\) with the downward vertical through \(O\).
  1. Find the value of \(u\).
  2. State one assumption made in modelling the motion of \(P\).
