Uniform velocity is velocity unaffected by acceleration. Variable velocity is velocity affected by acceleration.

What is the difference between uniform velocity and on uniform velocity?

I assume you mean "non-uniform". "Uniform" simply means that the velocity (in this case) doesn't change.


What is difference between uniform acceleration and variable acceleration?

Uniform acceleration simply means that the acceleration doesn't change over time. Variable acceleration may change over time. For practical purposes, problems with uniform acceleration (such as the one provided by gravity, near the Earth's surface) are much easier to calculate. Variable acceleration requires integration, which isn't taught in high school, but may appear at college if you study in a career in engineering.


What is the difference between uniform velocity and constant velocity?

Uniform velocity means that an object is moving in a straight line at a constant speed, while constant velocity adds the additional condition of moving with a constant speed and direction. In other words, constant velocity implies both uniform speed and no change in direction.


What is the nature of velocity time graph of a body moving with uniform retardation?

A body moving at a uniform speed may have a uniform velocity, or its velocity could be changing. How could that be? Let's look. The difference between speed and velocity is that velocity is speed.


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.

What is the condition in which a body moving with uniform speed has a variable velocity?

The condition in which a body moving with uniform speed has a variable velocity is when the direction of motion changes even though the speed remains constant. This means that the object is accelerating, even though its speed does not change.


What is the difference between uniform motion and periodic motion?

Uniform motion: velocity doesn't change. Periodic motion: velocity changes all the time in a uniform, repeated way. This is most often seen inorbitring and the like, when the change of velocity is a change in direction (and also speed) and the object eventually returns to (roughly) the same place in space.


What is the difference between increasing velocity and uniform velocity?

Increasing velocity means that the body is accelerating and a force is acting on the body to produce the acceleration. Uniform velocity means that there is no acceleration or deceleration and so no force acts on the body. (Note that in practice we cannot achieve perpetual motion because of either the decelerating force of gravity or friction).


Difference between uniform and non-uniform flow of fluid?

Uniform flow occurs when the fluid velocity and properties are constant throughout the flow field, while non-uniform flow has varying velocity and properties across the flow field. In uniform flow, streamlines are parallel and the flow is steady, whereas in non-uniform flow, streamlines may converge or diverge and the flow can be unsteady.


What is acceleration of a body moving with uniform velocity?

zero because the initial and final velocity is constant . so,difference bet. final velocity and initial velocity is zero


What is difference between an object moving with uniform acceleration and an object moving with a constant velocity?

A motion with a constant speed will always be moving the same speed A motion with a constant acceleration will constantly be gaining speed, and does not remain moving at the same speed.
