A particle moves in a circular path with a uniform speed. Its motion is
If particle moves at uniform speed
) it covers the path of circle in regular interval of time
. Hence, it is a periodic motion.
If it is moving with uniform speed the force acting on it will be centripetal force (
. And this is inversely proportional to distance of particle from origin. And in SHM the force has to be a type of
which does not resemble with it and it does not oscillate about mean position. Hence, it is neither SHM nor oscillatory motion.
