Answer:

The forces acting on the ball are gravity, friction and applied force.

Step-by-step explanation:

Tina rolls a ball across the floor. The forces acting on this ball are :

(1) Gravitational force : The force due to gravity act on this ball which is equivalent to, W = m × g

Where, m is the mass of ball and g is the acceleration due to gravity

(2) Frictional force : The force of friction always act in opposite direction of the applied force. It always opposes the direction of motion.

(3) Push (applied) : The force with which this ball is thrown is called applied force.

Hence, the correct option is (d) " all of these ".
