Question
heck up only the correct statement in the following.A body has a constant velocity and still it can have a varying speedA body has a constant speed but it can have a varying velocity.A body having constant speed cannot have any acceleration.None of these.
Solution
The correct statement is: "A body has a constant speed but it can have a varying velocity."
Explanation: Speed is a scalar quantity, indicating only how fast an object is moving. Velocity, on the other hand, is a vector quantity, meaning it includes both the speed and the direction of the object's motion. Therefore, even if a body is moving at a constant speed, if its direction of motion changes, its velocity is considered to be varying.
