Solution

The correct option is A Friction force increases its rotational kinetic energy.
The friction force will reduce v0 hence translational K.E.
The friction force will increase ω and hence increase its rotational kinetic energy.
There is no torque about the line of contact, angular momentum will remain constant.
The frictional force will decrease the mechanical energy.
