In a circular motion, how does the velocity change as an object moves around the path?

In circular motion, the velocity of an object is continuously changing due to the constant change in the direction of its motion. Even if the speed (the magnitude of the velocity) remains constant, the direction of the velocity vector changes at every point along the circular path. This is because velocity is a vector quantity that depends not only on speed but also on direction. As the object moves around the circle, it is subject to centripetal acceleration, which acts towards the center of the circle, causing the object to change direction. Therefore, regardless of whether the speed remains the same or not, the overall velocity of the object is continuously changing as a result of the changing direction, making the understanding of circular motion crucial in grasping concepts of dynamics and kinematics.
