Solution

The correct option is A

no net external force is acting on it


Newton's first law states that 'Every object will remain at rest or in a state of uniform motion unless compelled to change its state by the action of a net force. So according to Newton's first law, an object moves with a uniform velocity when the net external force acting on it is 0.
