    option (D) is correct.

    Explanation:

    According to the work energy theorem, the work done by all forces is equal to the change in kinetic energy of the body.

    the kinetic energy of a body is directly proportional to the square of the speed of the body.

    As the kinetic energy change, the speed of the body also change.

    Option (D) is correct.
