MCQ
The velocity of a body can change:
  • A
    If its acceleration is zero.
  • If its acceleration is non-zero.
  • C
    Both $A \ and\  B$
  • D
    None of the above.

Answer

Correct option: B.
If its acceleration is non-zero.
$b.$  If its acceleration is non - zero.
Explanation:
Acceleration is defined as change of velocity in unit time. So if acceleration is zero, there is no change of velocity, the body is moving with a constant velocity.
