## Circuit Analysis with Solenoids

### Problem Description

Two infinitely long solenoids pass through a circuit, shown in cross-section in the figure. Each solenoid has a specific radius and is aligned with radii \( r_1 = 0.150 \, \text{m} \) and \( r_2 = 0.250 \, \text{m} \), with separation \( a = 0.500 \, \text{m} \). The magnetic field in each solenoid is increasing at a rate of \( 40.0 \, \text{T/s} \). 

- **Left Solenoid (in blue, \( B_{\text{in}} \)):** Magnetic field directed into the page.
- **Right Solenoid (in green, \( B_{\text{out}} \)):** Magnetic field directed out of the page.

The circuit includes three resistors:
- \( R_1 = 5.00 \, \Omega \)
- \( R_2 = 15.0 \, \Omega \)
- \( R_3 = 12.0 \, \Omega \)

### Diagram Explanation

The diagram shows:
- Two solenoids with magnetic fields indicated by circles with dots (field out of the page) and crosses (field into the page).
- A circuit with three resistors arranged around these solenoids.

### Questions

a) **What are the magnitudes of the emfs induced in each of the two loops of the circuit?**

b) **What are the magnitudes and directions of the currents in each of the three resistors (specify upward or downward through each resistor)?**

*Tip: Redraw the circuit with appropriately oriented batteries in each loop.*

### Solution Approach

To solve these questions, use Faraday's Law of Induction and Ohm's Law. Calculate the induced emf using:

\[
\text{emf} = -\frac{d\Phi_B}{dt}
\]

Where \(\Phi_B\) is the magnetic flux. Analyze each loop separately, considering contributions to the current through each resistor.
