An electron moves on a straight line path rr as shown. A coil is kept on the right such that rr is the plane of the coil. At the instant when the electron gets closest to the coil (Neglect the self-induction of the coil)

• A. The current in the coil flows clockwise
• B. The current in the coil flows anti-clockwise
• C. The current in the coil is zero
• D. The current in the coil does not change the direction as the electron crosses the point O.
