What type of acceleration does an object moving with constant speed in a circular path experience?Select one:A) constant acceleration.B) terminal acceleration.C) linear acceleration.D) centripetal acceleration.E) free fall.

Respuesta :

ANSWER:

D) centripetal acceleration.

STEP-BY-STEP EXPLANATION:

When a body performs a uniform circular motion, the direction of the velocity vector changes at every instant. This variation is experienced by the linear vector, due to a force called centripetal, directed towards the center of the circumference that gives rise to the centripetal acceleration.

Therefore, the answer is centripetal acceleration.
