Answer is #(C)#

Explanation:

As endpoints #(-3,5)# and #(5,11)# form a diameter,

center is their mid point i.e. #((-3+5)/2,(5+11)/2)# or #(1,8)#

and distance between endpoints is diameter and its length is

#sqrt((5-(-3))^2+(11-5)^2)#

= #sqrt(8^2+6^2)=sqrt(64+36)=sqrt100=10#

and radius is #10/2=5#

Hence, answer is #(C)#
