Question

Why is the motion of a train starting from one station and stopping at the other is non uniform ?

Answer 1

(i) A body is said in uniform acceleration when its motion is along a straight line and its velocity changes by equal magnitude in equal interval of time.

(ii)A body is said in non-uniform acceleration when its motion is along a straight line and its velocity changes by unequal magnitude in equal interval of time.

Answer 2

$\huge\underline\mathfrak{Answer:-}$

When the train starts from the station it accelerates to attain a maximum velocity, there after on reaching the next station, the brakes are applied , and it retarded before it finally comes to rest. Thus, the motion of the train is non-uniform motion.
