The velocity of an object in uniform circular motion is constant, because, velocity is the rate of change of position at a given time or speed.

What are two ways in which an object can have constant velocity uniform motion?
Objects moving in uniform circular motion will have a constant speed, and two objects with the same acceleration have a constant velocity.
What accelerates while traveling at constant velocity?
An object in uniform circular motion undergoes constant acceleration but moves at constant "speed".Constant "velocity" means no acceleration.
Does velocity of an object remain constant in uniform circular motion?
Velocity is a vector with magnitude (speed) and direction. Since the linear velocity changes direction the speed is constant but the velocity is NOT constant.
When is an object said to have uniform velocity?
It isn't. Constant velocity? Uniform velocity across a group of objects?
Why tangential acceleration is not produced in uniform circular motion?
Because there is no tangential force acting on the object in uniform circular motion. The proof that there is no tangential component of acceleration is the fact that the tangential component of velocity is constant.

What two quantities is necessary for uniform circular motion?
The only thing required for an object to show uniform circular motion is a constant centripetal force. The object will have constant speed and kinetic energy, but its velocity, acceleration, momentum, and displacement will change continuously.

When an object does circular motion what is constant?
speed... this is said to be uniform circular motion
What is the motion of an object said to be if its velocity is constant?
the object is on uniform motion
An object in uniform circular motion travels at what?
At constant speed.
What is a Circular motion occurs when an object is traveling with constant speed in a circle?
uniform
When an object moves at a constant speed in circular path it is said to be in uniform motion?
Circular -Brittany Goraczkowski
What is uniform circular motion?
Uniform circular motion describes motion in which an object moves with constant speed along a circular path.In physics, uniform circular motion describes the motion of a body traversing a circular path at constant speed. The distance of the body from the axis of rotation remains constant at all times. Though the body's speed is constant, its velocity is not constant: velocity, a vector quantity, depends on both the body's speed and its direction of travel. This changing velocity indicates the presence of an acceleration; this centripetal acceleration is of constant magnitude and directed at all times towards the axis of rotation. This acceleration is, in turn, produced by a centripetal force which is also constant in magnitude and directed towards the axis of rotation.
