The 250-kg cart is initially rolling down the incline at a speed of 4 m/s when a force P is applied to the cable as shown at time t = 0. The force P is increased uniformly with the time until it reaches 1600 N at time t = 4 s, after which it remains constant at this value. Determine the velocity of the cart after applying force P for 4 s.
