Uniform acceleration is a correct answer.

I was under the impression that if the velocity was increased by equal amounts at equal time intervals it is called "constant" velocity. Therefore; the answer should be E.

Change in velocity is acceleration. Here the change in velocity is by an equal amount which shows uniform velocity change. Hence change velocity that is acceleration is Uniform. So, the answer is B.

A body is said to have a uniform acceleration if it travels in a straight line and its velocity increases by equal amounts in equal intervals of time.

So, Option B is correct.
