(N/A) An object moving in a circular path with a constant speed is an example of an accelerated body. This is because the direction of motion changes at every point along the circular path,which results in a change in velocity. Since acceleration is defined as the rate of change of velocity,the body is considered to be accelerated. $A$ common example is a dust particle on the circumference of a revolving bicycle wheel moving at a constant speed.
