Step-by-step explanation:

f = 100 / 3 rpm = 0.56 rps

(a) Acceleration is centripetal so it is always towards the centre of record.

(b) Angular frequency, ω = 2 πf = 2 x 3.14 x. 56 = 3.52 rad/s

r = 5 cm

a = rω² = 5 x 3.52 x 3.52 = 61.95 cm/s²

r = 10 cm

a = rω² = 10 x 3.52 x 3.52 = 123.9 cm/s²

r = 15 cm

a = rω² = 15 x 3.52 x 3.52 = 185.86 cm/s²
