If the distance S covered by a moving car in rectilinear motion with a speed v in time t is given by S = vt, then the car undergoes

A

a uniform acceleration

B

a non-uniform acceleration

C

a uniform velocity

D

a non-uniform velocity

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

As the body moves with a constant speed v along a straight line or rectilinear path hence body undergoes a uniform velocity. Here direction of the moving body is unchanged.
