$(a)$ If a body is moving along a circular path, then the body is said to be in circular motion.

$(b)$ Circular motion is an accelerated motion because the direction of its velocity is continuously changing but the magnitude of its velocity remains same.

$(c)$ Distance covered in one revolution

$2 \pi r=2 \times 3.14 \times 42250=265330\, km , t=24$ hour

Therefore, Speed $=\frac{\text { Distance }}{\text { Time }}=\frac{265330}{24}$

$=11055.42 km h ^{-1}$
