Answer:

b. when restraining forces are removed, driving forces will produce change

Explanation:

Force field analysis is a theory of Kurt Lewin in his contribution to change management.

This model suggests how change agents may diagnose the forces that drive and restrain proposed organizational change. It draws from this that change agents can only cause change to happen if they eliminate forces restraining order resisting this change.

Lewin list four forces in his research: change forces, driving forces, restraining forces and resisting forces, suggesting that in order for a change to happen the driving forces have to be more than the restraining forces and an equilibrium means no change.
