The graph below shows a force exerted on an object that starts at F=2.6 N at time at t= 0 s and stays constant until t=1.3 s.  The force then linearly decreases to 0 at t=2.6 s.  If the object has a mass of 2.6 kg and starts from rest determine its velocity at time 2.6 s.  [Hint:  First calculate the impulse by taking the area under the force versus time graph.  Impulse is equal to the change in momentum so you can divide impulse by mass to get velocity.]
