Show Answer Hide Answer
Non-uniform motion is more common in daily life

Explanation

  • Uniform motion is an idealisation — rarely seen in practice.
  • Example 1: A car in city traffic — stops at signals, speeds up between them.
  • Example 2: A ball rolling down a slope — it speeds up continuously.
  • Example 3: A person walking — pace changes with terrain and tiredness.
Non-uniform is more common — speed changes due to traffic, slopes, and other real-life factors.
