Question

The velocity of a car moving on a circular path changes continuously. Why?

Answer 1

Velocity:

1. Velocity is defined as the displacement of the body covered in unit time.
2. It is denoted by $v$.
3. Its SI unit is $m/s$.
4. It is a vector quantity means it has both magnitude and direction.
5. If either the magnitude of the velocity or the direction of the motion changes the velocity will change.
6. A car while moving on a circular path changes the direction of motion continuously so we can say that the velocity will also change continuously.
