Is it right that in all uniform motions like uniform speed and uniform velocity, the object will travel only in a straight path?

Solution

A body is said to be in uniform motion if it travels equal distance in equal intravel of time.no matter how small the time intervals may be.For example ,if a vehicle running at a constant speed of 15m/s covers equal distances of 15m,every second ,then it's motion is said to be uniform motion.
The shape of the path covered by a moving object having uniform speed and uniform velocity will be straight line.this is because a body has uniform velocity only if it only travel in straight line and move over equal distance in equal intravel time

an object after travelling in uniform motion for some time , takes a U turn,and traces back its path,with the same constant speed but in opposite direction,will the total motin b uniform motion(bcz we said uniform motion is equal distances(and not displacement) in equal time intervals)

Q. Statement 1 : Velocity-time graph for an object in uniform motion along a straight path is a straight line parallel to the time axis.
Statement 2 : In uniform motion of an object velocity increases as the square of time elapsed.

with uniform acceleration, then it travels a distance

2 x

with uniform speed, finally it travels a distance
