The line $l$ passes through the point $A$, whose position vector is $-\mathbf{i}+\mathbf{j}$, and is parallel to the vector $4\mathbf{i}-3\mathbf{j}+\mathbf{k}$ and the plane $p$ has equation $3x+\alpha y=26$.
The plane $p$ is parallel to the line $l$.

(i)

Show that $\alpha =4$.

[2]

(ii)

Find the position vector of the foot of the perpendicular, $N$, from $A$ to the plane $p$.
