An object moves in a circular path at a constant speed. Which statement correctly describes the motion and the forces acting on the object?
The velocity of the object is constant because its speed is constant.
The acceleration of the object is zero because its speed is constant.
There is a non-zero resultant force acting on the object because its velocity is changing.
The resultant force acting on the object is zero because its velocity is constant.
