A scooter starting from rest moves with a constant acceleration for a time $\triangle\text{t}_1,$ then with a constant velocity for the next $\triangle\text{t}_2,$ and finally with a constant deceleration for the next $\triangle\text{t}_3$ to come to rest. A 500N man sitting on the scooter behind the driver manages to stay at rest with respect to the scooter without touching any other part. The force exerted by the seat on the man is:
  1. 500N throughout the journey.
  2. Less than 500N throughout the journey.
  3. More than 500N throughout the journey.
  4. > 500N for time $\triangle\text{t}_1$ and $\triangle\text{t}_3$ and 500N for $\triangle\text{t}_2.$
