3 A particle \(P\) is projected with speed \(V \mathrm {~m} \mathrm {~s} ^ { - 1 }\) at an angle of \(\theta ^ { \circ }\) above the horizontal from a point \(O\) on horizontal ground. At the instant 4 s after projection the particle passes through the point \(A\), where \(O A = 40 \mathrm {~m}\) and the line \(O A\) makes an angle of \(30 ^ { \circ }\) with the horizontal. Calculate \(V\) and \(\theta\).
