The best statement that describes the effect of the net force applied to a moving object is:

The force will cause a change in the momentum of the object.

This is because any net force acting on an object will result in a change in its velocity (either speed, direction, or both), which will in turn change its momentum, as momentum is the product of mass and velocity.
