Which diagram correctly demonstrates the various forces acting on a ball moving horizontally with some speed?

Option A)

Explanation:

Here we know that ball is moving horizontally so the force on the ball perpendicular to the plane must be balanced

We can say that gravitational force "mg" is balanced by the normal force due to ground. Which shows that two equal and opposite arrows must be there on ball in vertical direction.

Now in horizontal direction there may be unbalanced force in two directions.

One of the force may be due to air drag and friction on the ground. While other force is due to some external agent.

So here correct answer is represented by first figure or we can say it is given by

Option A)

the area between the graph and the t axis

i think the answer is a, hope this : )
