Non-uniform motion occurs when an object's velocity changes over time, either in magnitude or direction, resulting in acceleration. This type of motion is characterized by variable speed and can be described using kinematic equations and calculus for precise analysis.

object's velocity

Changing velocity

Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity of an object with respect to time, and it is a vector quantity that has both magnitude and direction. It is a fundamental concept in physics that explains how the motion of objects changes due to forces acting upon them, often described by Newton's Second Law of Motion.

acceleration

Variable speed refers to the ability to adjust the rate of motion or operation in response to changing conditions or requirements, enhancing efficiency and performance. This concept is widely applied in various fields, including engineering, transportation, and electronics, to optimize energy consumption and functionality.

variable speed

Kinematic equations are mathematical formulas used to describe the motion of objects in terms of displacement, velocity, acceleration, and time, assuming constant acceleration. They are fundamental in physics for solving problems related to linear motion and provide a framework for predicting future motion based on initial conditions.

kinematic equations

Calculus is a branch of mathematics that studies continuous change through the use of derivatives and integrals, serving as a foundational tool in fields such as physics, engineering, and economics. It enables the modeling and analysis of dynamic systems and the calculation of quantities like areas, volumes, and rates of change.
