D)r=5[cos(ωt2)i +sin(ωt2)j]

p)constant speed
q)helical motion
r)constant mag of tangential acceleration
s)constant mag of total acceleration

(A) x=cos(wt)
y = sin(wt)
z=at
=> x2+y2=1

Vx = -wsin(wt)
Vy = wcos(wt)
Vz = a

So V = √ΣV2 = √w2+a2 = const

ax = -w2cos(wt)
ay = -w2sin(wt)
az = 0

a = w = const.

tangential acceleration = ldvdtl = w..

of course here as Vz = const.. it is helical motion

you can do similarly for other parts
