    marble are shown below. Notice that the size of the vector remains the same but the direction is constantly changing. Because the direction is changing‚ there is a ∆v and ∆v = vf - vi ‚ and since velocity is changing‚ circular motion must also be accelerated motion. vi ∆v vf -vi vf2 If the ∆t in-between initial velocity and final velocity is small‚ the direction of ∆v is nearly radial (i.e. directed along the radius). As ∆t approaches 0‚ ∆v becomes exactly radial‚ or centripetal.
