A particle of mass 12 kg is on a rough plane inclined at an angle of 25° to the horizontal. A force of magnitude \(P\) N acts on the particle. This force is horizontal and the particle is on the point of moving up a line of greatest slope of the plane. The coefficient of friction between the particle and the plane is 0.8. Find the value of \(P\).
