With respect to the origin O, the position vectors of the points A, B and C are given by

\(\overrightarrow{OA} = \begin{pmatrix} 0 \\ 5 \\ 2 \end{pmatrix}, \quad \overrightarrow{OB} = \begin{pmatrix} 1 \\ 0 \\ 1 \end{pmatrix} \quad \text{and} \quad \overrightarrow{OC} = \begin{pmatrix} 4 \\ -3 \\ -2 \end{pmatrix}.\)

The midpoint of AC is M and the point N lies on BC, between B and C, and is such that BN = 2NC.

(a) Find the position vectors of M and N.

(b) Find a vector equation for the line through M and N.

(c) Find the position vector of the point Q where the line through M and N intersects the line through A and B.
