You want to draw a free body diagram of the forces on the sled in the horizontal x-direction.
If you visualize the system in an x-y coordinate plane, the force along the x-direction is the angle it makes with the x-axis multiples by the force.
The angle made with the x-axis is cosine of the angle theta.
Please see picture attached.
The correct answer is
B It increases.
In fact, the kinetic energy of a moving object is given by
where m is the mass of the object and v is its speed. We see that the kinetic energy is proportional to the mass and proportional to the square of the speed: in this problem, the speed of the object remains the same, while its mass increases, therefore the kinetic energy will increase as well.

Answer:
A.) 1430 metres
B.) 80 seconds
Explanation:
Given that the train accelerates from rest at 1.1m/s^2 for 20s. The initial velocity U will be:
U = acceleration × time
U = 1.1 × 20 = 22 m/s
It then proceeds at constant speed for 1100 m
Then, time t will be
Time = distance/ velocity
Time = 1100/22
Time = 50 s
before slowing down at 2.2m/s^2 until it stops at the station.
Deceleration = velocity/time
2.2 = 22/t
t = 22/2.2
t = 10s
Using area under the graph, the distance between the two stations will be :
(1/2 × 22 × 20) + 1100 + (1/2 × 22 × 10)
220 + 1100 + 110
1430 m
The time taken between the two stations will be
20 + 50 + 10 = 80 seconds
