Question

What is uniform circular motion how is uniform circular motion regarded as a accelerated motion?

Answer 1

Uniform circular motion:

1. In uniform circular motion the body travels a circular path with a uniform velocity.
2. The velocity of the body is continuously changing its direction but not the magnitude for the value of the velocity in a uniform circular motion
3. With with the change in the direction of the velocity changes continuously.
4. Hence it generates acceleration, so the uniform circular motion is regarded as accelerated motion
