As we learnt in

Impulse Momentum Theorem -

\vec{F}=\frac{d\vec{p}}{dt}

\int_{t_{1}}^{t_{2}}\vec{F}dt=\int_{p_{1}}^{p_{2}}\vec{dp}

- wherein

If \bigtriangleup t  is increased, average force is decreased

 

 

 

Force \times time = Impulse = Change of momentum

\therefore\: \: \: \: Force= \frac{Impulse}{time}= \frac{3}{0.1}= 30 N

Correct option is 4.

Option 2)

150 N

This is an incorrect option.

Option 3)

3 N

This is an incorrect option.
