Circular motion is defined as the movement of an object along the circumference of a circle or rotation along a circular path.

Uniform circular motion: Uniform circular motion is defined as circular motion in which the particle's speed remains constant. A force provides centripetal acceleration in a uniform circular motion.

The body's kinetic energy and speed remain constant.

To keep a body in Uniform Circular Motion, a centripetal force is required. 

When one body moves around another, the force that causes this acceleration, keeps the body moving in a circular path and acts towards the centre.
