Question

Is the uniform circular motion accelerated? Give reason for your answer.

Answer 1

yes uniform circular motion accelarated this is because accelaration is change in velocity per unit time and velocity is a vector quantity. It means it has a particular direction but in the case of circular motion the direction of velocity changes at every point so for every new point in a circle the direction of velocity changes with respect to the previous point so if velocity changes then there must be some accelaration.

Answer 2

Answer:

when a body is moving in a circular path it is moving with constant speed but its velocity changes by time velocity change upon time is equal to acceleration so we can say thatif a body is moving in circular path it is moving with constant speed but it has accelerated velocity or motion
