Solution

The correct option is C Has a constant velocity
If a body with constant speed is travelling in the same direction(i.e. it is not changing its direction) then its velocity is constant and so its acceleration will be zero. But if the object is changing its direction then its velocity is also changing and so it possesses the acceleration .A body whose speed in a particular direction is constant has a constant velocity
