Answer:

B)

Explanation:

This is because the Magnus effect. A traveling spinning ball causes the air on one side to move faster than on the other side, and because, as the Bernoulli equation states, an increase of velocity leads to a decrease in pressure, a force towards that side will appear. Since the ball bends to the right, the air around the right side is flowing more rapidly.
