PROBLEM: A force F acts on a stationary object of a mass of 96 g for a duration of 30 milliseconds, causing it to move away from its initial position in a straight line on a frictionless surface. Fig. 1 shows the force as a function of time during that 30 milliseconds. Calculate the velocity of the object at times t = 5 ms, 20 ms, and 35 ms.
