Question
Differentiate between uniform linear motion and uniform circular motion.
Solution
| Uniform linear motion | Uniform linear motion |
| The body moves along a straight line. | The body moves along a circular path. |
| There is no acceleration and a steady velocity and speed. | The velocity in uniform circular motion is variable. |
| It is not an accelerated motion. | It is an accelerated motion. |
