Solution
The correct option is AF1=F2=F3=0 For t < 0 and t > 4 s, the position of the particle is not changing i.e. the particle is at rest. So no force is acting on the particle at these intervals. For 0< t < 4 s, the positions of the particle is continuously changing. As the position-time graph is a straight line, the motion of the particle is uniform, so acceleration, a=0. Hence no force acts on the particle during this interval also.
