Answer

$v=2.01ft/s$

Work Step by Step

The required velocity can be determined as $\Sigma F_y=0$ $\implies F-W=ma$ We plug in the known values to obtain: $100t-200=\frac{200}{32.2}a$ $\implies a=16.1t-32.2$ Now, $v=\int_2 ^t (16.1t-32.2)dt=(\frac{16.1}{2}t^2-32.2t)|_2^t$ $\implies v=8.05t^2-32.2t+32.2$ This simplifies to: $v=2.01ft/s$
