Choose the wrong statement from the following.

A

Zero velocity of a particle does not necessarily mean that its acceleration is zero.

B

Zero acceleration of a particle does not necessarily mean that its velocity is zero.

C

If speed of a particle is constant, its acceleration must be zero.

D

None of these

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

If speed, that is the magnitude of velocity, is constant, whereas the direction of velocity changes, we cannot say that velocity is constant. Therefore, the particle has non-zero acceleration.
