centripetal force= mvsquared/radius
so
centripetal acceleration=vsquared/radius
Velocity is a vector quantity. So direction is important But speed is a scalar. Body moving around a circle may go with uniform speed but not with uniform velocity as direction is changing continuously

A body moving at a uniform speed may have a uniform velocity, or its velocity could be changing. How could that be? Let's look. The difference between speed and velocity is that velocity is speed.

If body is moving in a circle with uniform or constant speed its acceleration will be uniform as velocity i.e. to say direction is changing at every point.
When the direction changes. A simple case is an object moving in a circle, at constant speed.
When an object is moving in a uniform circular motion while traveling in a circular path, this means it has a constant speed. When an object is moving in a circular path, this indicates it is constantly being pulled towards the center of the circle.

It will also double, according to Newton's Second Law.

it changes the speed

A motion with a constant speed will always be moving the same speed A motion with a constant acceleration will constantly be gaining speed, and does not remain moving at the same speed.
