    In both magnitude and direction since acceleration is a vector quantity

    C. in both magnitude and direction

    Explanation:

    Circular motion is the movement of a body rotating around an axis along a circular path of constant radius. This movement can be uniform, if the speed of rotation is constant, or varied, if its speed changes over time. When an object moves in a circular motion, the speed is constant in magnitude and direction.

    The circular movement occurs when a force of constant modulus is applied in a direction perpendicular to the speed of a piece of furniture, so that the modulus of this velocity remains constant, changing only its direction and its direction. The force applied in this case is called the centripetal force.
