Frictional force: It is a resisting force that resist the sliding of the body against any surface or another body.

Acceleration: Acceleration is the ratio of change in velocity of the object to the change in time interval.

Inertia: it is a property of the matter or body by which the body remain in its state of rest or uniform motion until an external force acts on it.

Velocity: velocity is defined as displacement of the object in unit time.

Conclusion:

Hence, the correct option is A.
