(a, c, d)
After impact, the force of friction will act in a direction opposite to that of the motion. The body will have retained its initial angular motion (clockwise). The force of friction will cause linear retardation, reducing v. It will also cause an anticlockwise angular acceleration, which will reduce ω ω to zero and then introduce anticlockwise ω ω till rolling without slipping beings. F will then disappear.
