A. The force will cause a change in the momentum of the object.
Explanation: By Newton's second law, a net force on an object equals the time rate of change of its momentum (F = dp/dt). A net force therefore changes the object's momentum; whether speed increases, decreases, or it stops depends on the direction and magnitude of the force relative to the velocity.
