For a particle in uniform circular motion, the acceleration $\displaystyle \vec{a}$ at any point $\displaystyle P(R, \theta)$ on the circular path of radius $\displaystyle R$ is (when $\displaystyle \theta$ is measured from the positive $\displaystyle x$-axis and $\displaystyle v$ is uniform speed) :
