A particle moving with uniform speed in a circular path maintains:

Options

  1. AConstant acceleration
  2. BConstant velocity but varying acceleration
  3. CVarying velocity and varying acceleration
  4. DConstant velocity

Correct answer

C. Varying velocity and varying acceleration

Step-by-step solution

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.
