Solution

The correct options are
B The velocities during DE and BC are in opposite directions
D During CD the body is moving with uniform velocity
The slope of distance-time curve gives us the velocity of object. Since CD is a straight line its slope is constant from C to D. Hence, body moves with uniform velocity during CD.
