Question

In a uniform linear motion, ___

• A. the direction of the body does change or in other words, the body moves in a straight path
• B. the direction of the body does not change or in other words, the body moves in a circular path
• C. the direction of the body does change or in other words, the body moves in a straight line
• D. the direction of the body does not change or in other words the body moves in a straight line

Answer 1

The correct option is D

the direction of the body does not change or in other words the body moves in a straight line

Uniform linear motion is defined as a motion of a body in a straight path with a constant velocity i.e. the motion is not accelerated and the direction of the body does not change or we can say that the body moves in a straight line without changing its direction. For an example, a car traveling at a velocity of 60 km/hr on a straight road is an example of uniform linear motion.
