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.
