    option C

    Explanation:

    The correct answer is option C

    There is no external force acting in the system hence the momentum will be conserved.

    As the milk is leaking out of the tank mass of the tanker is decreasing.

    When the mass of the container will decrease to conservation the momentum speed of the container will have to be increased.

    So, the car carrying milk will speed up.
