If a circle passes through the point (a, b) and cuts the circle `x^2+ y^2 = p^2` orthogonally, then the equation of the locus of its centre is :

A

`2ax + 2by -(a^2-b^2+ p^2)= 0`

B

`x^2+ y^2- 3ax-4by + (a^2+b^2- p^2)= 0`

C

`2ax + 2by - (a^2+b^2+ p^2)= 0`

D

`x^2+ y^2-2ax-3by + (a^2-b^2-p^2)= 0`.
