A, B, and C are three points on a line of greatest slope of a plane which is inclined at \(\theta^\circ\) to the horizontal, with A higher than B and B higher than C. Between A and B the plane is smooth, and between B and C the plane is rough. A particle P is released from rest on the plane at A and slides down the line ABC. At time 0.8 s after leaving A, the particle passes through B with speed 4 m s\(^{-1}\).

(i) Find the value of \(\theta\).

At time 4.8 s after leaving A, the particle comes to rest at C.

(ii) Find the coefficient of friction between P and the rough part of the plane.
