Consider a cylinder of mass $M$ resting on a rough horizontal rug that is pulled out from under it with acceleration $a$ perpendicular to the axis of the cylinder. What is the friction force $F_{friction}$ at point $P$? It is assumed that the cylinder does not slip.

  • A
    $Mg$
  • B
    $Ma$
  • C
