3. A smooth circular hoop of radius 1 m , with centre \(O\), is fixed in a vertical plane. A small ring \(Q\), of mass 0.1 kg , is threaded onto the hoop and held so that the angle \(Q O H = 30 ^ { \circ }\), where \(H\) is the highest point of the hoop. \(Q\) is released from rest at this position. Find, in terms of \(g\),
  1. the horizontal and vertical components of the acceleration of \(Q\) when it reaches the lowest
