    A wooden block is pushed such that it starts moving on a horizontal table, as shown in the given figure. It is observed that the block stops after traveling some distance. The block stops because the frictional force acts

    A)  Toward the left

    B)  Toward the right

    C)  In the upward direction

    D)  In the downward direction

    Correct Answer: A
