Velocity of a particle changes when:

A

Direction of velocity changes

B

Magnitude of velocity changes

C

Both of above

D

None of the above

Step-by-Step Solution

  1. Vector Quantity: Velocity is a vector quantity, which means it has both magnitude (speed) and direction .
  2. Conditions for Change: A vector variable changes if: Its magnitude changes. Its direction changes.
  • Both its magnitude and direction change.
  1. Conclusion: Therefore, the velocity of a particle changes if either the magnitude of the velocity changes, the direction of the velocity changes, or both change.
