Answer 1

As the car travels around the roundabout with a speed of 10 meters per second, the characteristic that is constant is speed.

Although the position of the car, velocity (which includes both speed and direction), and direction are changing as the car moves around the roundabout, the speed remains constant at 10 meters per second.
