Constant acceleration means the velocity graph has a constant slope. If the velocity steadily increases, the position graph must have a steadily increasing slope. Constant acceleration results in a parabolic position graph. Once again, the displacement is the area under the curve of the velocity graph

Dear student 
a = constant 
s = ut + 1/2 at^2 
u =0 
s is directly proportional to t^2 ….......
It is parabola
