Is a vector necessarily changed if it is rotated through anangle?

Assertion In circular motion, acceleration of particle is not always towards centre. Reason If speed of particle is not constant, acceleration is not towards centre.

Assertion : Acceleration of the particle in uniform circular motion remain constant. Reason : Velocity of the particle doesn’t change in circular motion.

Read each staremnt below crefully and state, with reasons, if it is true or false : (a) The net acceleration of a particle in circular motion is always along the radius of the circle towards the centre. (b) The velocity vector of a particle at a point is always aling the tagent to the path of the partile at that point. ltbRgt (c ) The acceleration vector of a particle in uniform circular motion acraged over one cycle is a null vector.

Assertion : For uniform circular motion it is necessary the speed of the particle is constant. Reason : There is no tangential force or tangential acceleration acting on particle in uniform circular motion.

Assertion : In a uniform circular motion, the linear speed and angular speed of the body are constant. Reason : A body can move on a circular path without having acceleration.

Assertion : The equation of motion can be applied only if acceleration is along the direction of velocity and is constant. Reason : If the acceleration of a body is constant then its motion is known as uniform motion.

Assertion: Centripetal acceleration is always direction towards the centre of rotation of an object undergoing uniform circular motion Reason: Centripetal acceleration is a constant vector

If a vector is rotated by angle theta then it is necessarily changed. The statement is : (a) True , (b) False
