1 A particle \(P\) of mass 0.6 kg is on the rough surface of a horizontal disc with centre \(O\). The distance \(O P\) is 0.4 m . The disc and \(P\) rotate with angular speed \(3 \mathrm { rad } \mathrm { s } ^ { - 1 }\) about a vertical axis which passes through \(O\). Find the magnitude of the frictional force which the disc exerts on the particle, and state the direction of this force.
