$A$ uniform solid cylindrical roller of mass $m$ is being pulled on a horizontal surface with force $F$ parallel to the surface and applied at its centre. If the acceleration of the cylinder is $a$ and it is rolling without slipping,then the value of $F$ is:

  • A
    $ma$
  • B
    $\frac{5}{3}ma$
  • C
    $\frac{3}{2}ma$
  • D
    $2ma$
