Question

Differentiate between uniform acceleration and variable acceleration.​

Open in App
Solution

Uniform acceleration Variable acceleration
In uniform or constant acceleration, the velocity of an object changes by an equal amount in every equal time period. If changes in velocity are not equal in the equal intervals of time, the acceleration is said to be variable.
Acceleration does not change with respect to time Acceleration is different for different time intervals
Eg: Body under freefall of gravity (assuming all other opposing forces to be zero). Eg: Motion of a bike on a crowded road.​
