Yes it will. The thing you have to remember is that the nikon d5100 does not have an auto focus motor built into it.

The Nikon AF-S 50mm f/1.8G will, the AF 50mm f/1.8D will not.

Yes it will. And for future reference, here's a regularly updated webpage that lists all the lenses that autofocus on your D5100.
