detailed solution

Correct option is A

When the electron moves from X to Y, the flux linked with the coil a b c d (which is into the page) will first increase and then decrease as the electron passes by. So the induced current in the coil will be first anticlockwise and will reverse its direction (i.e. will become clockwise) as the electron goes past the coil.
