Explanation:

No an object can not have a varying speed if its velocity is constant bcoz velocity is a vector quantity,which have magnitude as well as direction . speed is magnitude of velocity . so if speed is varying then velocity is also varying . so therefore it is not possible .

Hope it helps you.

Plzz mark it brainliest.

YES, it can have varying velocity if its speed is constant.

FOR EXAMPLE: a particle is moving in a circle with uniform speed of 10m/s which is a cicular motion .In circular motion direction is continously changing .so if speed is constant but direction is changing then velocity is changing .so an object can have varying velocity with constant speed.

Hope it helps :)
