Write true or false :​

A ball is thrown vertically upwards. Its motion is uniform throughout.

Open in App
Solution

A body is said to be in uniform motion when it travels equal distances in equal intervals of time. In other words, the body has a constant speed. ​

When the ball is thrown upwards, its speed decreases continuously until the ball stops at the topmost point. When the ball falls downwards, its speed keeps on increasing until it reaches the ground. Thus, speed is not constant and the motion is non-uniform.​
The given statement is FALSE.
