Let $C$ be the circle with centre at $(1, 1)$ and radius $= 1$. If $T$ is the circle centred at $(0, y)$,passing through the origin and touching the circle $C$ externally,then the radius of $T$ is equal to:

  • A
    $\frac{1}{2}$
  • B
    $\frac{1}{4}$
  • C
    $\frac{\sqrt{3}}{\sqrt{2}}$
  • D
    $\frac{5}{4}$
