A stoplight 20 m to the west turns yellow. Your car is traveling west at 12 m/s. You hit the brakes and decelerate at a rate of 6.0 m/s 2. Your car stops before it reaches the stoplight (which is considered to be at the origin). A student in a physics class made a picture of this. t o = 0 s x o = + 20 m v o = – 12 m/s a = – 6.0 m/s 2 Which of the following is labeled wrong? 1x o 2v o 3a 4a & v o 5all of the values are correct x Did the student mislabel anything?
