MCQ
A body cannot have a:
  • A
    zero speed and non-zero acceleration
  • B
    non-zero speed and zero acceleration
  • constant velocity and a varying speed
  • D
    constant speed and a varying velocity

Answer

Correct option: C.
constant velocity and a varying speed

Speed of body is magnitude of velocity. So if velocity is only changing direction then speed is constant.
But if speed is changing then velocity have to be varying.
When a body starts moving the incident when $t=0$ then it have zero velocity but some acceleration is there.
Object moving with constant velocity has zero acceleration but non zero speed.
