Which of the following statements is FALSE for a paricle moving in a circle with a constant angular sppeed?

Options

A. The velocity vector is tangential to the circle
B. The acceleration vector is tangential to the circle
C. the acceleration vector points towards the centre of the circle
D. the velocity and acceleration vectors are perpendicular to each other

Answer

B

Explanation

(a ) ,( c ) and (d ) are correct (b ) is wrong .
The particle is performing a U.C.M hence the accleration vector acts along the radius of the circle there is no tangential accleration in U.C.M
