c) Sprinkle sand over the wooden surface d) Cover the ball with jute​

Answer 1

Answer:

Pour oil on the wooden surface

Explanation:

this is a phenomenon where friction is present.it is the force of friction that stops the ball from moving further ahead. if you pour oil on the surface, it becomes slippery and hence the motion of the ball increases. here oul acts as a lubricant in reducing friction.
