  If the same pull instead acts over twice this distance: A) The sled's speed will be 2v and its kinetic energy will be 2K.
  B) The sled's speed will be 2v and its kinetic energy will be K .
  C) The sled's speed will be v and its kinetic energy will be 2K.
  D) The sled's speed will be v and its kinetic energy will be K .
  E) The sled's speed will be 4v and its kinetic energy will be 2K.
