Question

In an uniform circular motion which of the following quantity remains constant?

• A. Tangential acceleration
• B. Velocity
• C. Magnitude of tangential velocity
• D. Tangential force

Answer 1

The correct option is C

Magnitude of tangential velocity

In an uniform circular motion, the magnitude of tangential velocity i.e. speed of an object at each oint remains constant. The velocity comes into the picture due to change in direction at every point. But, its magnitude always remains constant.
