# 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\( (a) \)\( R\omega \)\( R\omega^{2} \)\( R\alpha \)\( (b) \)\( R\omega \)\( R\alpha \)\( R\omega^{2} \)\( (c) \)\( R\omega^{2} \)\( R\alpha \)\( R\omega \)\( (d) \)\( R\omega \)\( R\omega^{2} \)\( R\omega \)\( (e) \)\( R\omega^{2} \)\( R\alpha \)\( R\omega^{2} \)

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 speed | Centripetal acceleration | Tangential acceleration |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| \( (a) \) | \( R\omega \) | \( R\omega^{2} \) | \( R\alpha \) |
| \( (b) \) | \( R\omega \) | \( R\alpha \) | \( R\omega^{2} \) |
| \( (c) \) | \( R\omega^{2} \) | \( R\alpha \) | \( R\omega \) |
| \( (d) \) | \( R\omega \) | \( R\omega^{2} \) | \( R\omega \) |
| \( (e) \) | \( R\omega^{2} \) | \( R\alpha \) | \( R\omega^{2} \) |

- **A.** \(a\)
- **B.** \(b\)
- **C.** \(c\)
- **D.** \(d\)
- **E.** \(e\)
