Acceleration:
- The rate of change of velocity is called acceleration.
- Velocity is a vector quantity and so is the acceleration.
- Velocity is the speed with direction. Change in either speed and direction or both means the motion is accelerated.
Explanation:
- An object moves in a circular motion by centripetal force which is directed toward the center.
- In a circular motion, the direction of the body changes at each point of motion.
- Even if the speed is constant (uniform motion), the body is accelerated as direction keeps on changing.
- The magnitude of the centripetal acceleration responsible for the circular motion is
\(a = \frac{v^2}{r}\)
v is the speed of the body in a circular motion, r is the radius of motion and a is acceleration
'accelerated motion' is correct option.
