Question

Physics: A car rounds a horizontal curve of a constant radius at a constant speed. Which description best fits the direction of the car s velocity and acceleration as it rounds a circular path? A.) velocity is away from the center while acceleration is towards the center B.) velocity is tangent to the circle while acceleration is away from the circle C.) velocity is tangent to the circle while acceleration is towards the center D.) velocity is towards the center while acceleration is tangent to the circle

yes it is possible

Explanation:

if the body is travelling with uniform speed in a circular track its speed remains the same but the velocity is non-uniform as the direction of the body is changing every time.

eg: a body in uniform circular motion has constant speed but its velocity changes at every point during the course of motion. Whenever, the direction changes, velcoity changes.
