Consider the situation shown in the figure. The wire $AB$ is sliding on the fixed rails with a constant velocity. If the wire $AB$ is replaced by a semicircular wire,the magnitude of the induced current will

  • A
    increase
  • B
    remain the same
  • C
    decrease
  • D
    increase or decrease depending on whether the semicircle bulges towards the resistance or away from it
