Write the difference between uniform acceleration and non uniform acceleration.

Open in App
Solution

Uniform AccelerationNon-Uniform acceleration
  1. An Object is said to move in uniform acceleration if an equal amount of velocity increases in equal intervals of time.
    Velocity-time graph for the uniform acceleration is a straight line
  2. Velocity-time graph for the uniform acceleration is a straight line
  1. An object is said to be with nonuniform acceleration if the velocity of the object changes by unequal amounts in equal intervals of time.
    Velocity-time graph for the Non-uniform acceleration is a curved line.
  2. Velocity-time graph for the Non-uniform acceleration is a curved line.
For example :
A free-fall object possesses uniform acceleration.
Examples :
All Circular motion types where speed is constant and direction changes at every point.
