My answer is D but I will still try to word it out again
The vertical component grows at an increasing rate because
gravity is ACCELERATING the object vertically. So its speed
keeps growing. Speed is the slope of the displacement graph.
A projectile fired upward from the Earth's surface will usually slow down, come momentarily to rest, and return to Earth. For a certain initial speed, however it will move upward forever, with its speed gradually decreasing to zero just as its distance from Earth approaches infinity. The initial speed for this case is called escape velocity. You can find the escape velocity v for the Earth or any other planet from which a projectile might be launched using conservation of energy. The projectile of mass m leaves the surface of the body of mass M and radius R with a kinetic energy Ki = mv²/2 and potential energy Ui = -GMm/R. When the projectile reaches infinity, it has zero potential energy and zero kinetic energy since we are seeking the minimum speed for escape. Thus Uf = 0 and Kf = 0. And from conservation of energy,
Ki + Ui = Kf + Uf
mv²/2 -GMm/R = 0
∴ v = √(2GM/R)
This is the expression for escape velocity.
Answer:
The change in momentum is 
Explanation:
From the question we are told that
The time taken for the stone to stop is 
The net force on the rock is 
The impulse of the rock can be mathematically represented as

Substituting values


Now impulse is defined as the rate at which momentum change
Hence the change in momentum
of the rock is equal to the impulse of the rock
So

Work done by a given force is given by

here on sled two forces will do work
1. Applied force by Max
2. Frictional force due to ground
Now by force diagram of sled we can see the angle of force and displacement
work done by Max = 

Now similarly work done by frictional force



Now total work done on sled
