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 =3/4
Impulse at t=4s= change in momentum= mv-mu
=m (v-u)
= 2 (0-3/4)= -3/2kgm/s
