A clockwise

B counterclockwise

C in both directions at the same time

D 50% of the time clockwise and 50% of the time counterclockwise

ANS:D - 50% of the time clockwise and 50% of the time counterclockwise

AC voltage has both upper peak and lower peak. so, upper peak flows in clockwise direction(time clockwise) and lower peak flows in anti clockwise(time counter clockwise) direction.
