5 A particle of mass 20 kg is on a rough plane inclined at an angle of \(60 ^ { \circ }\) to the horizontal. Equilibrium is maintained by a force of magnitude \(P \mathrm {~N}\) acting on the particle, in a direction parallel to a line of greatest slope of the plane. The greatest possible value of \(P\) is twice the least possible value of \(P\). Find the value of the coefficient of friction between the particle and the plane.
