Use the following formula and solve for Vf
Vf=Vi+at
Where
Vf=?
Vi=60m/s
a=-10m/s^2
t=12s
**Since the acceleration is in the opposite direction of the velocity, acceleration is negative.
Vf=60m/s+[(-10m/s^2)(12s)]
Vf=-60m/s
Velocity is in the opposite direction, then velocity initial, so -60m/s is 60m/s north
B is the best answer choice.
