(a) For t<0, the distance covered by the particle x is zero. Hence force on the particle is zero. For t>4s, the particle is moving at a constant distance, so the force will be zero. For 0

 

(b) Impulse is given by the equation, Impulse = total change of momentum. At t = 0, u = 0, v = distance / time = ¾ = 0.75 m/s

Impulse = 4 *  (0.75-0) kg-m/s = 3 kg-m/s

Impulse at t=4, u = 0.75, v = 0, Impulse
