Solution

The correct option is B Straight line
Momentum (Linear momentum) for moving body is defined as the product of mass and velocity. If a body is moving with velocity, v and having mass, m then momentum of body is p $= m \times v$ . SI unit of momentum (p) is kgm $s^{- 1}$ .
F $= \frac{d p}{d t}$
F $= m (v_{2} - v_{1}$ )
Hence nature of graph will be straight line.
