If a particle has the initial velocity of \( v_0 = 12\text{ m/s} \) to the right at \( S_0 = 0 \). Then what is the position when \( t = 10\text{ s} \) and \( a = 2\text{ m/s}^2 \) to the left?
Show Hint
Always pay close attention to direction keywords like “to the left” or “to the right” in kinematics problems. Misinterpreting “to the left” as a positive acceleration value is a common mistake that changes the answer significantly (giving \( 120 + 100 = 220\text{ m} \)).
