Centripetal acceleration

The acceleration towards the center of the circle is known as centripetal acceleration.

An object traveling in a circular path may have a constant speed, but it is not traveling in a straight line. The velocity and direction are changing as velocity is a vector. A change in velocity means the object is accelerating.

Centripetal force provides the centripetal acceleration.
