$A$ plank of mass $M$ is placed over a smooth inclined plane and a sphere of mass $m$ is also placed over the plank. Friction is sufficient between the sphere and the plank. If the plank and the sphere are released from rest,the frictional force on the sphere is:

  • A
    up the plane
  • B
    down the plane
  • C
    horizontal
  • D
    zero
