Problem

With clockwise taken as the negative sense, a wheel has an initial angular velocity of −10 rad s−1-10\,\text{rad s}^{-1} and a constant angular acceleration of +2 rad s−2+2\,\text{rad s}^{-2}. After 3 s3\,\text{s}, will the wheel be rotating faster or slower in magnitude? Explain your answer in one or two sentences.
