$$\mathrm{r}={\mathrm{e}}^{\mathrm{k}\theta }$$$$\mathrm{taking}\log \mathrm{both}\mathrm{sides}$$$$\mathrm{logr}=\mathrm{k}\theta$$$$\frac{1}{\mathrm{r}}\frac{\mathrm{dr}}{\mathrm{d}\theta }=\mathrm{k}$$$$\because \mathrm{Radial}\mathrm{vel}.$$$$\frac{\mathrm{dr}}{\mathrm{dt}}=\frac{\mathrm{k}}{\mathrm{r}}$$$$\therefore \frac{\mathrm{d}\theta }{\mathrm{dt}}=\frac{\mathrm{d}\theta }{\mathrm{dr}}.\frac{\mathrm{dr}}{\mathrm{dt}}=\frac{1}{{\mathrm{r}}^2}\Rightarrow {\mathrm{r}}^2\frac{\mathrm{d}\theta }{\mathrm{dt}}=1$$$$\therefore \mathrm{Transverse}\mathrm{accl}.$$$$\frac{1}{\mathrm{r}}\frac{\mathrm{d}}{\mathrm{dt}}\left({\mathrm{r}}^2\frac{\mathrm{d}\theta }{\mathrm{dt}}\right)=0\mathrm{proved}$$$$\mathrm{please}\mathrm{check}.$$
