Question

Give an example of a body moving with uniform speed and constant acceleration.

Answer 1

Unifrom speed:

1. If an object travels the same distance in the same amount of time, and its time speed graph is a straight line parallel to the time axis, the body is moving at a uniform speed.
2. We know that rate of change of velocity is called acceleration.
3. Acceleration, $a=\frac{v-u}{t}$
4. According to the question if the speed is uniform i.e change in velocity will be zero. So acceleration will also be zero.
5. A body moving in a circular path with a constant speed is an example of uniform speed and constant acceleration
