When a body moves with constant speed in a circular path, then:

Awork done will be zero
Correct Answer
Bacceleration will be zero
Cno force acts on a body
Dits velocity remains constant

Solution

if the speed is constant then change is kinetic energy is zero corresponding work done will be zero. the forces applying on the body are in radial direction and movement of body is tangential (angle between force and displacement is $${ 90 }^{ \circ }$$) sot the total work done by forces will be zero.
