    Because "acceleration" doesn't mean "speeding up". It means any change

    in the speed or direction of motion.

    An airplane speeding up, a bicycle slowing down, and a car going around a curve, are all doing accelerated motion.

    A circle has no straight parts, so an object traveling in a circle is always changing

    its direction. That means accelerated motion, even if its speed doesn't change ...
