Uniform circular motion is an example of:

Uniform circular motion is an example of: Correct Answer Variable acceleration

CONCEPT:

Circular motion:

  • The motion of a body moving around a fixed point in a circular path is called circular motion.
  • Types of circular motion:
    1. Uniform circular motion
    2. Non-Uniform circular motion

Uniform circular motion:

  • If the angular velocity of the body remains constant during circular motion then it is called uniform circular motion.
  • Uniform circular motion is an accelerated motion because the direction of motion of the body continuously changes.

Non-Uniform circular motion:

  • If the angular velocity of the body changes during circular motion then it is called non-uniform circular motion.

EXPLANATION:

Uniform circular motion:

  • If the angular velocity of the body remains constant during circular motion then it is called uniform circular motion.
  • Uniform circular motion is an accelerated motion because the direction of motion of the body continuously changes.
  • Since the direction of motion continuously changes so the acceleration also changes during uniform circular motion.
  • Hence, option 2 is correct.
