Answer:24

Step-by-step explanation:

First you need to calculate the acceleration, for this use can use the following formula Force (F) = Mass (M) x Acceleration (A). If we extract A out of this, you can get the following equation A = F/M = 4/0.5 = 8 m/s^2. So, the object accelerates each second by 8 m/s, if the object does this for 3 second, the velocity would be 8 x 3 = 24
