An object in free space when set in motion continues to be in motion indefinitely in a straight line, if it is not influenced by any other force [or energy]. When the rate of change of position with respect to time is constant, then this motion is called UNIFORM LINEAR MOTION. An everyday example of linear motion is the soldiers marching past in a parade. Other examples of linear motion are a car moving at a constant speed, a bullet fired from a pistol moving towards the target, etc.

in the same lengths of time.
Wiki User
∙ 11y agoThat means that something moves at a constant velocity: i.e., without changing direction, and without changing its speed.

- Non Uniform Linear motion: with variable velocity.

∙ 13y agoConsider two quantities.
If a change in one of the quantities is proportional to the other, then these two quantities are said to have a linear relationship

What is the difference between uniform linear motion an uniform circular motion?
linear is which is on a straight path and circular motion is which has a curved path. *In a uniform linear motion,the velocity is constant and the acceleration is zero.So,uniform linear motion is an unaccelerated motion. *In uniform circular motion the velocity can be variable although the speed is uniform.So,it is an accelerated motion.
Uniform linear motion vs uniform circular motion?
Linear motion goes in a straight line (apply laws of physics: a body in motion will stay in motion unless otherwise impeded, most often by some type of friction or another body). Circular motion (or non-linear motion) involves revolutions and creates centrifigal force (measured in G's if you're in the air force)
Why is uniform linear motion not an accelerated motion?
Because the object is not moving in any direction at all. Therefore its not accelerating or in motion.
What is the difference between deceleration and retardation?
retardation and deceleration in uniform linear motoin, they are same but in projectile motion they not the same
What do you mean by uniform and non uniform motion?
HEYAnswer:"Uniform" motion is motion with a constant speed in a straight line. Speed ordirection are not changing.If a body moving along straight line travels unequal distances in equal intervals of time, the body is said to be in Non uniform motion

Mechanism to transfer linear to rotary motion?
"Think of a simple single cylinder engine....crankshaft goes round & round,piston goes up & down,connecting rod keeps the two tied together...wa la!" This type of linear motion is known as reciprocating motion, where the linear motion is a repetitive up and down, or back and forth action. The linear motion velocity of a wheel and crank system is not uniform and conforms to a sinusodial curve, i.e. it is slowest at the 0º and 180º positions and fastest at the 90º position. To get uniform linear motion from uniform rotary motion, you can use a threaded shaft and thread follower arrangement, or a rack and pinion. btw, it's "voila!".
What is uniformly accelerating linear motion?
Motion implies momentum, which implies velocity. Linear implies a straight line. Accelerating implies changing velocity. And uniform implies constancy. So, when an object moves in a straight line and accelerates at a constant rate, you have uniformly accelerating linear motion.
What is the difference between deceleration and retardation?
retardation and deceleration in uniform linear motoin, they are same but in projectile motion they not the same
What is movement that occurs along a straight line?
Motion with uniform velocity. * * * * * There is absolutely no reason for the velocity - or even speed - to remain constant. It is linear motion an that is all that there is to it.
What do you mean by uniform and non uniform motion?
HEYAnswer:"Uniform" motion is motion with a constant speed in a straight line. Speed ordirection are not changing.If a body moving along straight line travels unequal distances in equal intervals of time, the body is said to be in Non uniform motion
What is the nature of distance time graph for uniform motion of an object?
the distance time graph will show a linear or a straight line
What is the nature of the distance time graph for uniform motion of an object?
the distance time graph will show a linear or a straight line
Types of motion?
uniform and non uniform motion uniform motion [ equal distance in equal intervals of time is known as uniform motion] non uniform motion [equal distance at unequal intervals of time is known as non uniform motion]
What is a linear motion for science?
I believe linear motion is simply straight motion because linear means straight
