    (b) The car traveled around a track with constant velocity is incorrect

    Explanation:

    We know that velocity is vector quantity and speed is scalar quantity

    As in the car traveled around the track its direction will change at every instant so velocity can not be constant as its depends on both magnitude as well as direction.

    Speed is a scalar quantity which only depends on the magnitude and the speed can be constant around the track

    So option (a) is incorrect statement
