- Modified True/False - indicate whether the sentence or statement is true or false. If the statement is false, correct the statement to make it true. 12. An object in uniform circular motion has a constant velocity while experiencing centripetal acceleration. 13. An object travelling in uniform circular motion experiences an outward centrifugal force that tends to pull the object out of the circular path. 14. An object with less inertia can resist changes in motion more than an object with more inertia. 15. For an object sliding on a horizontal surface with a horizontal applied force, the frictional force will always increase as the applied force increases.arrow_forwardPls help asaparrow_forwardAnswer the given question showing step by step by and all necessary working out.arrow_forward
