Question
When will you say a body is at non-uniform acceleration?
Advertisements
Solution
- A body is said to have non-uniform acceleration if it travels in a straight path in such a way that its velocity changes at a non-uniform rate.
- i.e., the velocity of a body increases or decreases in unequal amounts in an equal interval of time.
