Three concentric circles,of which the biggest is $x^2 + y^2 = 1$,have their radii in $A.P.$ If the line $y = x + 1$ cuts all the circles in real and distinct points,the interval in which the common difference $d$ of the $A.P.$ will lie is:

  • A
    $\left( 0, \frac{1}{4} \right)$
  • B
    $\left( 0, \frac{1}{2\sqrt{2}} \right)$
  • C
    $\left( 0, \frac{2 - \sqrt{2}}{4} \right)$
  • D
    None
