Uniform velocity - Does this mean constant speed changing direction based on a circle? Constant velocity would not result in a circular path.

Constant v, it means v = rw, it means w is also constant, so no angular acceleration, so no tangential acceleration.

Acceleration means change in velocity with time. Here velocity is constant. So it has no acceleration.

A body is said to be moving with the uniform velocity when it has no acceleration.

@Bhoopendra singh.
In circular motion the direction is always tangential.
In circular motion the direction is always tangential.

Acceleration means increase in velocity. So the statement is right.

It a particle moving with uniform velocity then it would travel in?

What is the meaning of word 'tangential' here?

Here body moves with centrifugal acceleration.

Yes, There is only centripetal acceleration.
