Solution

The correct option is A Both A and B are true.
We know that when we move a conductor in a magnetic field, then an emf is induced across its end.

The emf induced is given by the equation,
e=Bvl

Hence, statement A is correct.

Also, we know that if a coil lies in a magnetic field and if the magnetic field is changed, the flux linked with the coil also changes and hence an emf is induced in the coil according to the equation, e=dϕdt

Hence, statement B is also correct.

Therefore, option (A) is the correct answer.
