The correct statement that describes the changes in a golf ball when it is hit with a club is:
**A**: Its kinetic energy and its speed increase.
When a golf ball is struck by a club, the club imparts energy to the ball, causing both its speed and kinetic energy to increase as it starts moving through the air.
**A**: Its kinetic energy and its speed increase.
