MCQ
An object moving in a circular path at constant speed has constant
  • Displacement
  • B
    Velocity
  • C
    Acceleration
  • D
    Energy

Answer

Correct option: A.
Displacement
a
(a)

An object undergoing uniform circular motion is moving with a constant speed nonetheless, it is accelerating due to its change in direction. The direction of the acceleration is inwards. An object moving in uniform circular motion will cover the same linear distance in each second of time(constant speed)
