B
A will come to rest and stop rotating.
C
B will move with a speed u without rotating.
D
B will move with a speed u and rotate with an angular velocity ω ω .

The correct answer is:
CHECK THE SOLUTION.

(b, c, d)

There is an exchange of linear velocities. However, the two spheres cannot exert torques on each other, as their surfaces are frictionless, and the angular velocities of the spheres do not change.
