The tube $AC$ forms a quarter circle in a vertical plane. The ball $B$ has an area of cross-section slightly smaller than that of the tube,and can move without friction through it. $B$ is placed at $A$ and displaced slightly. It will

  • A
    always be in contact with the inner wall of the tube
  • B
    always be in contact with the outer wall of the tube
  • C
    initially be in contact with the inner wall and later with the outer wall
  • D
    initially be in contact with the outer wall and later with the inner wall
