Here's why:
* Velocity is a vector: It has both magnitude (speed) and direction.
* Constant speed, changing direction: While an object moving in a circle might maintain a constant speed, its direction is constantly changing.
* Tangential velocity: The object's velocity is always tangent to the circular path, meaning it's always changing as the object moves along the curve.
