MCQ
A particle moving with uniform speed in a circular path maintains:
- AConstant acceleration
- BConstant velocity but varying acceleration
- ✓Varying velocity and varying acceleration
- DConstant velocity
✓
Answer
Correct option: C.
Varying velocity and varying acceleration
c
A particle moving with uniform speed in a circular path maintains varying velocity and varying acceleration. It is because direction of both velocity as well as acceleration will change continuously.
