Two flat circular and concentric loops of different radii and non-zero resistance are placed on a table. The outer loop has a battery and a switch, with a switch that has been closed for some time. Which of the statements below best describes the current I(t) in the inner loop before and immediately after opening the switch?

Initially the current is zero and then it flows counterclockwise after the switch is opened.

Initially the current is clockwise and then it flows counterclockwise after the switch is opened.

Initially the current is zero and then it flows clockwise after the switch is opened.

Initially the current is clockwise and then it flows clockwise for a short time after the switch is opened.
