A particle is acted upon by a force of constant magnitude which is always is perpendicular to the velocity of the particle, the motion of the particles takes place is a plane it follow that

A

its velocity is constant

B

its acceleration is constant

C

its KE is constant

D

it moves in a circular path

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C, D

As force is always perpendicular to velocity, type of motion is circulat motion. Also , as in uniform circular motion speed is always constant, therefore, KE is constant.
