Question

The direction of motion in circular motion ______.

विकल्प

• is linear

• is along the tangent at that point of the circular path

• towards the centre

• none of these

Answer 1

The direction of motion in circular motion is along the tangent at that point of the circular path.

Explanation:

In circular motion, the direction of motion of a body at any point is along the tangent to the circular path at that point. The direction of velocity changes continuously, while the centripetal force acts towards the centre of the circle.
