Read each statement below carefully and state, with reasons, if it is true or false: (c) The acceleration vector of a particle in uniform circular motion averaged over one cycle is a null vector.
Read each statement below carefully and state, with reasons, if it is true or false: (c) The acceleration vector of a particle in uniform circular motion averaged over one cycle is a null vector.

Answer :

(c) True

The direction of the acceleration vector in a uniform circular motion (UCM) is toward the circle’s centre. It does, however, vary over time. A null vector is the average of these vectors over one cycle.
