Question

State an important characteristic of uniform circular motion. Name the force which brings about uniform circular motion.

Short Note

Solution

An important characteristic of uniform circular motion is that the speed remains constant while the direction of motion changes continuously with time, so it is accelerated.
Centripetal force brings about uniform circular motion. This force is always directed towards the center of the circular path and it is along the radius of the circular path.
