Answer:

40 s

Explanation:

By Newton's 2nd law,

The rate of change of momentum is directly proportional to the unbalance force applied on the object,

By that you can get the equation,

F = ma ⇒ a = F/m

but  a = (v-u)/t

So we get, t = (v-u)×m/F

where terms are in usual meaning

t =(3.2-0)×15000/1200  = 40 s
