$A$ solid sphere with a velocity (of centre of mass) $v$ and angular velocity $\omega$ is gently placed on a rough horizontal surface. The frictional force on the sphere:

  • A
    must be forward (in direction of $v$)
  • B
    must be backward (opposite to $v$)
  • C
    cannot be zero
  • D
    none of the above
