Good explanation @Nisar.

R=(EI/M).

E is the radius of curvature. Its given than bending moment is constant that is M constant(uniform bending)..and also E and I are constant for a section. And now we got EI /m is constant, that is R is constant. Then it's a circle.

I think it may be a parabolic arc.

Am I right?
