Solution

The correct option is C

Uniform Circular Motion


Motion:

  1. Motion is the phenomenon of an item changing its position in relation to time in physics.
  2. Displacement, distance, velocity, acceleration, speed, and time are all mathematical words used to describe motion.

The explanation of the correct option:

In the case of option (C),

Uniform circular motion occurs when a body moves in a circular direction at a constant speed.

The explanation for incorrect options:

In the case of option (A),

This type of motion describes the movement of an object down a straight line with its velocity remaining constant along that line while it traverses equal distances in equal intervals of time, regardless of the duration of time.

In the case of option (B),

An item traveling at a variable speed and not traversing the same distance in equal time intervals, regardless of the duration of the time intervals, is described as this type of motion.

Therefore, the correct option is C.
