When forces $F_1, F_2, F_3$ are acting on a particle of mass $m$ such that $F_2$ and $F_3$ are mutually perpendicular,the particle remains stationary. If the force $F_1$ is now removed,the acceleration of the particle is:

$A$ ball rests upon a flat piece of paper on a table top. The paper is pulled horizontally but quickly towards the right as shown. Relative to its initial position with respect to the table,the ball:
$(A)$ Remains stationary if there is no friction between the paper and the ball.
$(B)$ Moves to the left and starts rolling backwards,$i.e.$,to the left if there is friction between the paper and the ball.
$(C)$ Moves forward,$i.e.$,in the direction in which the paper is pulled.
