Circular acceleration has 2 components, the centripetal and tangential acceleration.

The formula for calculating the centripetal acceleration of a particle is:

a_{c} = v^2/r

Where v is the velocity or instantaneous speed and r is the radius.

a_{c}  = (3^2)/6 = 1.5 m/s^2

Assuming that the particle stays on the same circular path, another thing it can have is the tangential acceleration. While the centripetal acceleration is constant, tangential acceleration depends on the location of the particle in the circular path. So to answer A and B, yes we can have an acceleration of 6 and 4 respectively.
