(N/A) $(i)$ Uniform motion: The velocity-time graph is a straight line parallel to the time axis,indicating that the velocity of the body remains constant over time.
$(ii)$ Uniformly accelerated motion: The velocity-time graph is a straight line passing through the origin (or having a positive slope),indicating that the velocity of the body increases at a constant rate over time.
$(iii)$ Uniformly retarded motion: The velocity-time graph is a straight line with a negative slope,indicating that the velocity of the body decreases at a constant rate over time.
