9702Momentum and Newton’s laws of motion

A car of mass m is travelling with a velocity v. The velocity of the car is increased by Δv due to a constant resultant force F acting for a time t. What is a correct expression for t?

  1. At = (mv + mΔv)/F
  2. Bt = mΔv/F
  3. Ct = F/(mΔv)
  4. Dt = F/(mv + mΔv)
