A mass accelerates uniformly when the resultant force acting on it
A is zero.
B is constant but not zero.
C increases uniformly with respect to time.
D is proportional to the displacement from a fixed point.
ans is B ...why not C?

Thanks

When the slider is moved to Y, the potentiometer P and the voltmeter are in series {no current flows through Q} with almost all the resistance in the voltmeter {as stated in the question, the voltmeter has a very high resistance},
I have a question!, if the question had stated Voltmeter has a infinite resistance, then? there would have been no current in the voltmeter so the ans wud have been D, right?

f=ma since mass is constant F is proportional to acceleration, & since acc is uniform hence Force is uniform too!
