- When an object travels in a circle:
- It is travelling at a constant speed.
- The direction it is travelling in is constantly changing.
- As a result, its velocity is constantly changing.
- Examples of objects that travel in circles are satellites in orbit, cars travelling around bends, planes banking to change direction, and fairground rides, such as Ferris Wheels.
