A point \(P\) is at a distance \(R\) from the axis of rotation of a rigid body whose angular velocity and angular acceleration are \(\omega\) and \(\alpha\) respectively. The linear speed, centripetal acceleration, and tangential acceleration of the point can be expressed as:

Linear speedCentripetal accelerationTangential acceleration
\((a)\)\(R\omega\)\(R\omega^{2}\)\(R\alpha\)
\((b)\)\(R\omega\)\(R\alpha\)\(R\omega^{2}\)
\((c)\)\(R\omega^{2}\)\(R\alpha\)\(R\omega\)
\((d)\)\(R\omega\)\(R\omega^{2}\)\(R\omega\)
\((e)\)\(R\omega^{2}\)\(R\alpha\)\(R\omega^{2}\)
