For your better entry test preparation and better Physics MCQs preparation, in this section, we are going to post Circular Motion MCQs.
In physics, circular motion is a movement of an object along the circumference of a circle or rotation along a circular path. It can be uniform, with a constant angular rate of rotation and constant speed, or non-uniform with a changing rate of rotation.
