To solve this problem, we need to find the final velocity of the particle after \( t = 6 \) seconds, given the force-time graph and the initial conditions (mass \( m = 10 \, \text{kg} \), initial velocity \( v_0 = 0 \)).

### Steps to solve:

1. **Use impulse-momentum principle**: The change in momentum is equal to the impulse provided by the force.

   \[
   \Delta p = m \Delta v = \text{Impulse} = \int F(t) \, dt
   \]

   The area under the force-time graph gives the impulse. The total impulse will give the change in velocity since the particle starts from rest.

2. **Break the graph into two parts**:
   - From \( t = 0 \) to \( t = 3 \) seconds, the force is constant at \( 100 \, \text{N} \).
   - From \( t = 3 \) to \( t = 6 \) seconds, the force is constant at \( -40 \, \text{N} \).

### Calculations:

1. **For \( t = 0 \) to \( t = 3 \):**
   - Force \( F = 100 \, \text{N} \).
   - Impulse \( I_1 = F \times \Delta t = 100 \times 3 = 300 \, \text{Ns} \).

2. **For \( t = 3 \) to \( t = 6 \):**
   - Force \( F = -40 \, \text{N} \).
   - Impulse \( I_2 = (-40) \times (6 - 3) = -40 \times 3 = -120 \, \text{Ns} \).

3. **Total impulse**:
   \[
   I_{\text{total}} = I_1 + I_2 = 300 + (-120) = 180 \, \text{Ns}
   \]

4. **Change in momentum**:
   \[
   \Delta p = m \Delta v = 180 \, \text{Ns}
   \]
   So, the change in velocity:
   \[
   \Delta v = \frac{180}{m} = \frac{180}{10} = 18 \, \text{m/s}
   \]

Since the initial velocity \( v_0 = 0 \), the final velocity \( v_f \) is:

\[
v_f = 18 \, \text{m/s}
\]

### Conclusion:
The final velocity of the particle at \( t = 6 \) seconds is \( \boxed{18 \, \text{m/s}} \).
