Practice question

If the acceleration is opposite to the initial velocity, the object slows down, reverses direction, and then accelerates in the direction of the acceleration along a straight line. The path remains linear but with a change in direction. As per NCERT Chapter 3, equations v=u+at, s=ut+½at², v²=u²+2as describe uniformly accelerated motion. Applying correct signs and units gives The object slows, reverses, and accelerates as the result, so option D is correct.
