B. The object is speedingup.
C. The object has a constantvelocity.
D. The object isaccelerating.
E. The object is changingdirection.
F. The object has a net forceacting on it.

Explanation / Answer

D, E and F must be true It should be obvious that the object changes direction To do this it need to be accelerating To be accelerating there has to be a force acting on it (Newtonssecond law, F= m*a) A,B,C COULD be true but there is nothing that makes any of themHAVE to be.
