Can a particle accelerate if its speed is constant ? Can it accelerate if its velocity is constant ? Explain. |
| Answer» When the particle describes a uniform cirular motion, its speed is constant but it has centripetal acceleration action along the radius directed towards the centre of the circular path. When the particle is moving with a constant velcity, there is no change in velcity with time and hence its acceleration is zero. | |
