- Motion of a body on a rough surface
- Motion of a body falling freely under gravity (correct)
- Motion of a body moving at a constant speed
What happens to the velocity of an object in uniform acceleration?

Flashcards
Uniform Acceleration
Uniform Acceleration
Motion where velocity changes by equal amounts in equal time intervals.
Example of Uniform Acceleration?
Example of Uniform Acceleration?
Freefall (objects falling toward Earth).
Velocity Change in Uniform Acceleration
Velocity Change in Uniform Acceleration
Velocity increases by consistent amounts over equal time frames.
Study Notes
Uniform Acceleration
- Uniform acceleration is a type of motion where the acceleration of an object remains constant over a period of time.
- It is commonly observed in motion under the influence of a constant force, such as an object falling under gravity.
Characteristics of Uniform Acceleration
- In uniform acceleration, the velocity of an object changes at a constant rate, resulting in a linear increase or decrease in velocity.
- The velocity of an object in uniform acceleration changes by equal amounts in equal time intervals.
