it will look like a parabola (or ellipsis if you read elsewhere in this thread) if you add another dimension to your graph of the balls position.
That could be a physical dimension, such as throwing a ball to your friend across the room and plotting x vs y. Or even plotting the height of the ball against time.

consider the x-axis of this image the distance between you and your friend, or time.
