What changes continuously in uniform circular motion?


Open in App
Solution

  1. The motion of a body moving with constant speed along a circular path is called uniform circular motion.
  2. The direction of the object in a circular path changes continuously.
  3. The velocity changes continuously in a uniform circular motion.
  4. The velocity depends on direction, so that's why it is changing as it is a vector.
  5. The acceleration is changing along the direction of the tangent.
  6. The quantities depend on the direction that is changing continuously in a uniform circular motion like acceleration, and velocity.
