Solution

The correct option is B False
  1. If an object is moving in a circular or a non-linear path with a constant magnitude of velocity, here the velocity changes because the direction keeps changing, but the speed is constant as it only depends on the magnitude.
  2. The velocity change is because of a change in magnitude but not in direction.

Hence, the given statement is false.
