Uniform circular motion:

  1. A circular motion is a body movement that takes a circular path.
  2. The motion of a body moving at a constant speed along a circular path is known as uniform circular motion.
  3. The velocity varies due to changes in the direction while the speed remains constant.

Hence, Option(B) is correct.
