The correct answer is: 30

The formula to calculate the change on momentum of the object is given by

pf-pi=Fdt   ...1

Substitute the values of the known parameters into equation (1) and solve to calculate the final momentum of the object.

pf-10 kg m s-1=2 N×5 spf=10+10 kg m s-1= 20 kg m s-1

The formula to calculate increase in kinetic energy K of the particle is given by

K=12mpf2-pi2   ...2

Substitute the values of the known parameters into equation (2) to calculate the required increase in kinetic energy.

K=12×5 kg×202-102 kg2 m2 s-2= 30 J
