If you really want the help of an expert in this subject, you'll follow directions and put the SUBJECT in the School Subject box.
The answer depends upon how long it takes to reach the 5.8 m/s speed.

Force = (Mass) x (Acceleration)

The Acceleration is the velocity change, divided by how long it takes to get there.
