  1. If a body moves with a constant speed in a circle
    1. no work is done on it
    2. no force acts on it
    3. no acceleration is produced in it
    4. its velocity remains constant
Correct Option: D

A body moving with a constant speed in a circle is an example of uniform circular motion. The velocity vector is constant in magnitude but changing in direction. Since velocity is a vector quantity that has both magnitude and direction, a change in either the magnitude or the direction constitutes a change in the velocity which leads to change in acceleration.
