A fixed smooth sphere of radius 0.6 m has centre \(O\) and highest point \(T\). A particle of mass \(m \mathrm {~kg}\) is released from rest at a point \(A\) on the sphere, such that angle \(T O A\) is \(\frac { \pi } { 6 }\) radians. The particle leaves the surface of the sphere at \(B\) (see diagram).
- Show that \(\cos T O B = \frac { \sqrt { 3 } } { 3 }\).
- Find the speed of the particle at \(B\).
- Find the transverse acceleration of the particle at \(B\).
