3 A body, \(Q\), of mass 2 kg moves in a straight line under the action of a single force which acts in the direction of motion of \(Q\). Initially the speed of \(Q\) is \(5 \mathrm {~m} \mathrm {~s} ^ { - 1 }\). At time \(t \mathrm {~s}\), the magnitude \(F N\) of the force is given by $$F = t ^ { 2 } + 3 \mathrm { e } ^ { t } , \quad 0 \leq t \leq 4 .$$
  1. Calculate the impulse of the force over the time interval.
  2. Hence find the speed of \(Q\) when \(t = 4\).
