$A$ horizontal force $F$ is applied at the center of mass of a cylindrical object of mass $m$ and radius $R$,perpendicular to its axis as shown in the figure. The coefficient of friction between the object and the ground is $\mu$. The center of mass of the object has an acceleration $a$. The acceleration due to gravity is $g$. Given that the object rolls without slipping,which of the following statement$(s)$ is(are) correct?
$(A)$ For the same $F$,the value of $a$ does not depend on whether the cylinder is solid or hollow
