Momentum and kinetic energy-relativistic mass

Question-

A force is applied to an object with a finite (non-zero) mass to accelerate it. The speed of the object increases until it is very close to the speed of light. If the force continues to be applied without interruption, which of the following statements are true about the physical properties of the moving object?

1. The relativistic mass will increase continuously, with no upper limit

True

False

2. The momentum will increase continuously, with no upper limit

True

False

3. The speed will eventually exceed c

True

False

4. Kinetic energy will increase continuously, with no upper limit

True

False

5. The rest mass will increase until reaching a maximum value

True

False
