Detailed Solution

In a body of mass m at rest for t seconds a constant force acts on it and then ceases to act. In next t sec the body travels a distance x, magnitude of force is mx/t2 .
Given:
Mass = m
Time = t sec
Distance = x
Initial velocity, = 0
Let the velocity of the body after t sec = v
We know if the initial velocity of a body is u and it is under uniform acceleration. Then its velocity v at any time given by v=u+at ------ (1)
Also, using Newton’s first law, we have F=ma
Therefore a=Fm    ----- (2)
Put (2) in (1)
v=0+Fmt
 v=Ftm
Given the distance covered in another t seconds
distance=Speed×time
x=vt
  x=Ftmt
 F=mxt2
