PASSAGE-I : A body is said to be in motion when its position changes continuously with respect to a stationary object taken as reference point. A body has a uniform motion if it travels equal distance in equal intervals of time, no matter how small these time intervals may be. The distance-time graph for uniform motion is a straight line. A body has a non-uniform motion if it travels unequal distance in equal intervals of time. The distance-time graph for a body having non-uniform motion is a curved line.
If a body travels 2 metres in `1^(st)` second, 3 metres in `2^(nd)` second and then, travels with a constant speed, the motion of the body is

A

oscillatory

B

uniform

C

non-uniform

D

circular motion.
