An object moving along the $x$-axis with a uniform acceleration has a velocity $\vec{v} = (12 \ cm \ s^{-1}) \hat{i}$ at $x = 3 \ cm$. After $2 \ s$,if it is at $x = -5 \ cm$,then its acceleration is:

  • A
    $\vec{a} = (-16 \ cm \ s^{-2}) \hat{i}$
  • B
    $\vec{a} = (11 \ cm \ s^{-2}) \hat{i}$
  • C
    $\vec{a} = (-11 \ cm \ s^{-2}) \hat{i}$
  • D
    $\vec{a} = (8 \ cm \ s^{-2}) \hat{i}$
