The circuit below is a square with sides L and is placed in a magnetic field directed into the screen. Attached to the circuit are two light bulbs of resistance R Ω\Omega. The magnetic field is described by the function B(t) = at + b. What is the current in the circuit and in what direction does it flow. Also how much power is dissipated in light bulb 1.
