प्रश्न
The acceleration of a moving body is constant in magnitude and direction. Must the path of the body be a straight line?
If not, given an example.
उत्तर
If the acceleration of a moving body is constant in magnitude and direction then the path of the body must not be a straight line because in circular motion also acceleration of a body is constant in magnitude and always directed towards the centre.
So the path of the body may be a straight line and may be a circular one.

The rate of change of velocity is ______.
Assertion: The accelerated motion of an object may be due to change in magnitude of velocity or direction or both of them.
Reason: Acceleration can be produced only by change in magnitude of the velocity. It does not depend the direction.
An object can be moving with uniform speed but with variable acceleration.
