The initial position of an object at rest is given by $3 \hat{i}-8 \hat{j}$. It moves with constant acceleration and reaches the position $2 \hat{i}+4 \hat{j}$ after $4 \, s$. What is its acceleration?

  • A
    $-\frac{1}{8} \hat{i}+\frac{3}{2} \hat{j}$
  • B
    $2 \hat{i}-\frac{1}{8} \hat{j}$
  • C
    $-\frac{1}{2} \hat{i}+8 \hat{j}$
  • D
    $8 \hat{i}-\frac{3}{2} \hat{j}$
