at rest
moving with no acceleration
in accelerated motion
moving with uniform velocity
A
at rest
B
in accelerated motion
C
moving with uniform velocity
D
moving with no acceleration

As an object moves in a merry-go-round, the speed of the object may be constant, but the direction of the object changes with the motion of the object hence its velocity will also change.
As velocity is changing, therefore the boy will be in an accelerated motion.
Hence option C is correct
