Instantaneous acceleration
Question

Fine the correct statement out of the following:
(i) if acceleration = 0, motion is uniform.
(ii) if acceleration = constant, acceleration is uniform but motion not.
(iii) if acceleration  constant, both acceleration and motion are not uniform.
(iv) if acceleration = constant, both acceleration and motion are uniform.

Moderate
Solution

Any non-zero acceleration (constant or variable) causes change in velocity i.e., non-uniform motion. When acceleration is zero, the velocity remains constant i.e., uniform motion.

Hence option (iv) is incorrect.
