Question

Distinguish between uniform velocity and variable velocity.

Answer 1

Sr. No.	Uniform velocity	Variable velocity
1.	If a body travels equal distances in equal intervals of time along a particular direction, then the body is said to be moving with a uniform velocity.	If a body travels unequal distances in a particular direction in equal intervals of time, or it moves equal distances in equal intervals of time but its direction of motion does not remain the same, then the velocity of the body is said to be variable (or non-uniform).
2.	Example - A body, once started on a frictionless surface, moves with uniform velocity.	Example - The motion of a body in a circular path, even with uniform speed, is with variable velocity as the direction of motion of the body continuously changes with time.
