Solution

1. If a body covers an equal distance in an equal interval of time in a particular direction, its motion is called "uniform motion".

2. A uniform motion always takes place in a straight line.

3. Any motion along a curved path is not a uniform motion.

4. In uniform motion, the magnitude of speed is constant.

Therefore, a motion in which a body covers equal distances in equal intervals of time is called uniform motion.
