16. Uniformly accelerated linear motion

Uniformly accelerated linear motion refers:

Uniformly accelerated: the numerical value of acceleration is constant, so the value of the velocity changes at the same rate.

Linear: the trajectory is a straight line, so, the direction of the acceleration is constant.

Equations for UALM

As we have just seen, the acceleration in an UALM is always the same, and as a consequence, the velocity value changes.
