$A$ uniform magnetic field is restricted within a region of radius $r$. The magnetic field changes with time at a rate $\frac{d\vec{B}}{dt}$. Loop $1$ of radius $R > r$ encloses the region,and loop $2$ of radius $R$ is outside the region of the magnetic field as shown in the figure. Then the $e.m.f.$ generated is:

An aluminium ring $B$ faces an electromagnet $A$. The current $I$ through $A$ can be altered.

$A$ coil with an area of $500 \ cm^2$ and $1000$ turns is placed in a magnetic field of $2 \times 10^{-5} \ Wb/m^2$ perpendicular to its plane. If the coil is rotated by $180^o$ in $0.2 \ s$,the induced $emf$ in $milli-volts$ is:
