  1. The motion of a body around a circular path with a uniform speed is called uniform circular motion.
  2. Take an example of a stone tied to a thread and whirled in a circular path.
  3. In the above example, the speed is uniform, but the velocity is variable due to continuous changes in direction, so the bodies have an accelerated motion.
