Solution

The correct option is B Uniform motion of a body along a circular path
In uniform circular motion, the speed of the body remains same but its direction changes continuously.

When a parachutist jumps out of an airplane, his speed and direction changes as he falls down.

A body falling downwards has a speed that keeps increasing.

A car moving in a straight line with constant speed has the same speed. However, the direction remains the same as well.
