For each natural number $k$,let $C_k$ denote the circle with radius $k$ centimeters and center at the origin. On the circle $C_k$,a particle moves $k$ centimeters in the counter-clockwise direction. After completing its motion on $C_k$,the particle moves to $C_{k+1}$ in the radial direction. The motion of the particle continues in this manner. The particle starts at $(1, 0)$. If the particle crosses the positive direction of the $x$-axis for the first time on the circle $C_n$,then $n$ is equal to

  • A
    $6$
  • B
    $7$
  • C
    $8$
  • D
    $9$
