A car moves on a circular road describing equal angles about the centre in equal intervals of time. Which of the following statements about the velocity of car are not true ?

Options

A. Magnitude of velocity is not constant
B. Both magnitude and direction of velocity change
C. Velocity is directed towards the centre of the circle
D. Magnitude of velocity is constant but direction changes.

Answer

D

Explanation

As body covers equal angles in equal intervals of time, so its angular velocity and hence, magnitude of linear velocity is constant but its direction changes `( :. V = r omega)`.
