Solution
The correct option is C Both statements are incorrect If a body travels equal distances in equal intervals of time in a straight line, then the body is said to be in a state of uniform motion. During the uniform motion, the speed of the body is constant.
On the other hand in non-uniform motion, the body travels equal distances in unequal time intervals or the body travels unequal distances in equal intervals of time. During the non-uniform motion, the speed of the body changes continuously.
