Solution

The explanation for the answer

  1. When an object travels an equal distance in an equal interval of time, it is known as uniform speed.
  2. Given that a stone of mass m is rotated in a circular path with a uniform speed by tying a string with the help of your hand. As there is no external force affecting the system, the stone will be moving at a uniform speed.

The stone will be moving at a uniform speed.
