Solution

Non-uniform Motion:

  1. If a body covers unequal distances in equal intervals of time, then it is said to be in non-uniform motion.
  2. The motion of a train, a bouncing ball, and a running horse are some examples of non-uniform motion.
  3. The average speed of non-uniform motion varies from the actual speed of the object.
  4. The distance-time graph of non-uniform motion is a curved line graph.

Thus, if a particle travels unequal distances in equal intervals of time, then its motion is said to be non-uniform motion.
