Open in App
Solution
The correct option is B
True
The statement is true.
The direction of motion of a particle in circular motion changes at each point in the circular path. This continuous change in direction implies that the velocity of the particle is non-uniform i.e., the motion is accelerated.
Therefore, the motion of the moon around the earth is an accelerated motion.
