| Uniform Acceleration | Variable acceleration |
|---|---|
| The acceleration is said to be uniform (or constant) when equal changes in velocity take place in equal intervals of time. | If changes in velocity are not same in the same intervals of time, the acceleration is said to be variable. |
| Example — The motion of a body under gravity (e.g., free fall of a body) | Example — The motion of a vehicle on a crowded (or hilly) road. |
