    This is a Short Answer type Questions as classified in NCERT Exemplar

    Explanation- mass of body =2kg

    From the above graph the body at x=0 when t=0 so body at rest.

    So impulse is also zero.

    From t=0s to t=4s graph becomes straight line which shows body is at uniform velocity

    Beyond 4s graph is parallel to time axis, body is at rest

    So tan θ =3/4

    Impulse at t=4s= change in momentum= mv-mu

     =m (v-u)

     = 2 (0-3/4)= -3/2kgm/s
