The diagram shows a vertical cross-section ABC of a surface. The part of the surface containing AB is smooth and A is 2.5 m above the level of B. The part of the surface containing BC is rough and is at 45° to the horizontal. The distance BC is 4 m (see diagram). A particle P of mass 0.2 kg is released from rest at A and moves in contact with the curve AB and then with the straight line BC. The coefficient of friction between P and the part of the surface containing BC is 0.4. Find the speed with which P reaches C.
