Problem

A disk spins counterclockwise and then experiences a constant clockwise angular acceleration until it stops. If counterclockwise is defined as the positive direction, which of the following correctly gives the signs of the initial angular velocity ωi\omega_i and the angular acceleration α\alpha during the slowing process? (a) ωi\omega_i positive, α\alpha positive (b) ωi\omega_i positive, α\alpha negative (c) ωi\omega_i negative, α\alpha positive (d) ωi\omega_i negative, α\alpha negative
