उत्तर
A body is said to have constant acceleration, if it travels is a straight line and its velocity increases or decreases by equal magnitude in equal intervals of time.
Ex: the motion of a freely falling body.

Correct your friend who says that acceleration gives the idea of how fast the position changes.
The speed of a particle is constant. Will it have acceleration? Justify with an example.
The acceleration of the body that moves with a uniform velocity will be ______.
It is possible to have objects moving with uniform speed but variable acceleration.
Assertion: A negative acceleration of a body can be associated with speeding up of the body.
Reason: Increase in the speed of a moving body is independent of its direction of motion.
