Tom throws a football to Wes, who is a distance l away. Tom can control the time of flight t of the ball by choosing any speed up to vmax and any launch angle between 0° and 90°. Ignore air resistance and assume Tom and Wes are at the same height. Which of the following statements is incorrect?
(A) If $v_{max} < \sqrt{gl}$, the ball cannot reach Wes at all.
(B) Assuming the ball can reach Wes, as $v_{max}$ increases with $l$ held fixed, the minimum value of $t$ decreases.
(C) Assuming the ball can reach Wes, as $v_{max}$ increases with $l$ held fixed, the maximum value of $t$ increases.
(D) Assuming the ball can reach Wes, as $l$ increases with $v_{max}$ held fixed, the minimum value of $t$ increases.
(E) Assuming the ball can reach Wes, as $l$ increases with $v_{max}$ held fixed, the maximum value of $t$ increases
