According to Newton's first law of motion, an unbalanced force can change both the object's direction and speed. Therefore, the correct statement is:
**An unbalanced force can change both the object's direction and speed.**
This is because an object in motion will remain in motion at a constant velocity (which includes both speed and direction) unless acted upon by an unbalanced force.
**An unbalanced force can change both the object's direction and speed.**
This is because an object in motion will remain in motion at a constant velocity (which includes both speed and direction) unless acted upon by an unbalanced force.
