**Educational Content**

A 500 g particle moving along the x-axis experiences the force shown in the figure below. The particle's velocity is 9.0 m/s at x = 0 m.

### Figure Description

This graph illustrates the force \( F_x \) (in Newtons) experienced by a particle as a function of position \( x \) (in meters). The graph is a linear plot with the following details:

- At \( x = 0 \, \text{m} \), the force \( F_x \) is 15 N.
- The force decreases linearly to 0 N as \( x \) increases from 1 m to 3 m.
- The graph thus forms a straight line that descends from 15 N at \( x = 1 \, \text{m} \) to 0 N at \( x = 3 \, \text{m} \).

### Problem Statement

**Part A**

Calculate the velocity of the particle at \( x = 3 \, \text{m} \).

- Express the answer with the appropriate units.

Please provide the velocity \( v = \) in the fields provided when ready.
