detailed solution

Correct option is B

Since resistance of the circuit is increasing and hence current in the circuit is decreasing, so didt is negative. Current in the circuit is given by i=6-Ldidt12. Since didt is negative so the value of numerator will be more than 6 V and hence current in the circuit at that instant will be more than 0.5 A.
