Solution

The correct option is D All of these
The force acting on an object can have various effects:
  • It can change the shape of a non-rigid body. For example, when we compress a spring, its shape changes.
  • It can change the direction of a moving object. For example, a batsman hits a ball to change its direction of motion.
  • It can speed up or slow down a body. For example, using brakes, we can accelerate or decelerate a vehicle.
