For a particle in circular motion, the acceleration `veca` at a point `(R, theta)` on the circle of radius R is (Here, `theta` is measured from the X-axis)

A

`(v^2)/R hati+(v^2)/R hatj`

B

`(v^2)/R cos theta hati+(v^2)/R sin theta hatj`

C

`- (v^2)/R sin theta hati+(v^2)/R cos theta hatj`

D

`- (v^2)/R cos theta hati-(v^2)/R sin theta hatj`
