$F=19.444KN; T=12.5KN$

The required forces $F$ and $T$ can be determined as follows: $mv_1+\Sigma \int_{t_1}^{t_2} F_x dt=mv_2 $ We plug in the known values to obtain: $(50000+3\times 30000)(0)+F\Delta t=(50000+3\times 30000)(\frac{40\times 1000}{3600})$ $\implies (80-0)=1.556\times 10^6$ $\implies F=19.444KN$ Similarly, $mv_1+\Sigma \int_{t_1}^{t_2} F_x dt=mv_2$ We plug in the known values to obtain: $(3\times 30000)(0)+T\Delta T=(3\times 30000)(\frac{40\times 1000}{3600})$ $\implies T=12.5KN$
