A particle is acted upon by a force of constant magnitude which is always perpendicular to the velocity of the particle, the motion of the particle takes place in a plane. It follows that
(a) its velocity is constant
(b) its acceleration is constant
(c) its kinetic energy is constant
(d) it moves in a straight line.

c) : No work is done when a force of constant magnitude always acts at right angles to the velocity of a particle when the motion of the particle takes place in a plane.
Hence kinetic energy of the particle remains constant.
