Practice question
Question
In uniform circular motion, what is the relationship between the velocity vector and the path of the object?
Explanation
Velocity v=v₀+at. Starting from rest, v=at. With a=(ax i+ay j), magnitude |v|=t√(ax²+ay²) per NCERT vector addition. Substituting ax, ay, t gives |v| equal to It is tangential to the path. Hence option A is correct.
