Detailed Solution

Concept- Either uniform motion or non-uniform motion can be present in a body. Equal displacements occur at equal times apart in a uniform motion. The displacements are uneven for equal periods of time in non-uniform motion.
When a body is not travelling in a straight line and experiences unequal displacements at intervals of time, it is said to be in a non-uniform motion. Due to some finite acceleration occurring during the body's motion during the non-uniform motion, the velocity of the body does not remain constant.
Non-uniform motion examples include the following:
1. A car travelling on a bumpy road encounters erratic fluctuations in velocity and acceleration.
2. A vehicle travelling at a high speed actually accelerates, and such accelerated motion is referred to as non-uniform motion.
3. Projectile motion: When a body is subject to gravity, it experiences acceleration that is equivalent to the acceleration caused by gravity, and acceleration denotes non-uniform motion for the body.
Hence, option 1 is correct.
