The correct answers are:
moving in a circular orbit
,
falling in an electric field
In circular orbit, the direction of the motion of charge particle is changing continuously, thus it is an accelerated motion.
And when a charge particle starts acceleration, then it falls in an electric field, because the velocity of charge particle changes so its motion become accelerated and can produce EM wave.
