Uniform circular motion...
when a body moves in circular path with constant speed is known as uniform circular motion
there are two types of accelerations in circular motion
1.centripetal acceleration
2.tangential acceleration
Centripetal acceleration is responsible for change in direction of velocity while tangential acceleration is responsible for change in magnitude of velocity
so in case of uniform circular motion there isn't change in magnitude of velocity but the direction of velocity changes at each point as the body is moving in circular path
Non-uniform circular motion...
When a body moves in circular path but its direction as well as magnitude of velocity changes at each point
in case of non uniform circular motion both types of accelerations will produce
the centripetal acceleration is always directed towards the center of the circle
hope it will help
