Why does a wheel in uniform motion about an axis passing through its center and perpendicular to its plane still maintain mechanical equilibrium despite the presence of centripetal acceleration in its constituent particles?

Options

1. AThe centripetal acceleration arises from the external forces acting on the wheel.
2. BThe internal elastic forces within the wheel cancel each other out, maintaining equilibrium.
3. CThe centripetal acceleration is counteracted by the wheel's rotational velocity.
4. DThe presence of centripetal acceleration does not affect the equilibrium state of the wheel.
