(a) This is the square of the 4-momentum. It is equal to 
.
(b) This is the centrifugal force.
(c) 
(d) At a distance 
from the centre of the Earth only the mass inside a 
sphere of radius 
contributes to the gravitational field. This mass is
proportional to 
.
Combining this with the inverse-square law for the
gravitational field gives force that is proportional to 
.
(e) Your diagram should show the normal to the plate and two axes parallel to the sides of the rectangle (all passing through its centre).
