$A$ small ring is rolling without slipping on the circumference of a large bowl as shown in the figure. The ring is moving down at $P_{1}$,comes down to the lowest point $P_{2}$,and is climbing up at $P_{3}$. Let $v_{CM}$ denote the velocity of the centre of mass of the ring. Choose the correct statement regarding the frictional force on the ring.

  • A
    It is opposite to $v_{CM}$ at the points $P_{1}, P_{2}$ and $P_{3}$.
  • B
    It is opposite to $v_{CM}$ at $P_{1}$ and in the same direction as $v_{CM}$ at $P_{3}$.
  • C
    It is in the same direction as $v_{CM}$ at $P_{1}$ and opposite to $v_{CM}$ at $P_{3}$.
  • D
    It is zero at the points $P_{1}, P_{2}$ and $P_{3}$.
