A wheel is rotating about an axis that is in the Z-direction. The angular velocity ωzωz is -6.00 rad/srad/s at tt = 0, increases linearly with time, and is +4.00 rad/srad/s at t = 14.0 ss. We have taken counterclockwise rotation to be positive.   Is the angular acceleration during this time interval positive or negative?   positive negative
