Which component of acceleration is parallel to the velocity of given link?

(a) Radial

(b) Tangential

Correct option is (b) Tangential

To explain I would say: The radial component also known as the normal component is parallel to the link and always exists as long as there is angular velocity. However the tangential component acts in a direction parallel to the velocity of the link.
