(N/A) body is said to be in uniform motion if it travels equal distances in equal intervals of time,no matter how small these time intervals may be.
For example,a car moving at a constant speed of $10 \ m/s$ will cover equal distances of $10 \ m$ every second,so its motion is uniform.
The distance-time graph for uniform motion is a straight line as shown in the figure.
