Question

In a merry go round,the speed is constant but the velocity is not constant because its direction will be changing i.e, there is acceleration in the motion.

Answer 1

Yes. You are correct. The merry go round is in uniform circular motion, in which the acceleration changes constantly, meaning there is change in velocity. However, speed remains intact.

I hope my ans helps

Answer 2

$\huge \mathfrak{Question:-}$

In a merry go round,the speed is constant but the velocity is not constant because its direction will be changing i.e, there is acceleration in the motion!

★Given boy is enjoying a ride on merry go round which is moving with constant speed of 10m/s.

So, when the boy moves in a circular path ( merry go round) with uniform speed it's motion is uniform circular motion.

In uniform circular motion, speed remains contant, but the direction of motion is constantly changing.

★Motion of an object in a circle with constant speed is an example of accelerated motion!
