Given the parametric equations of curve $C$ as $\begin{cases} x=3+\sqrt{10}\cos \alpha \\ y=1+\sqrt{10}\sin \alpha \end{cases}$ ($\alpha$ is the parameter), establish a polar coordinate system with the origin of the rectangular coordinate system as the pole and the positive $x$-axis as the polar axis.

(1) Find the polar equation of curve $C$ and explain what trajectory it represents.

(2) If the polar equation of a line is $\sin \theta - \cos \theta = \frac{1}{\rho}$, find the length of the chord intercepted by curve $C$.
