3-2.Motion in Plane
medium

A particle is acted upon by a force of constant magnitude which is always perpendicular to the velocity of the particle. The motion of the particle takes place in a plane. It follows that  

AIt moves in a circular path
BAcceleration is constant
CKinetic energy is constant
DBoth $(a)$ and $(c)$
(IIT-1987)

Solution

(d) In the given condition, the particle undergoes uniform circular motion and for uniform circular motion the velocity and acceleration vector changes continuously but kinetic energy is constant for every point.
