1. b. ​
Explanation:

2. c. 30 Wb
Explanation:

3. c. The polarity of induced emf is such that it tends to produce a current which
opposes the change in magnetic flux that produced it.
Explanation: The direction of an induced emf, or the current, in any circuit is
such as to oppose the cause that produces it.
If the direction of the induced current were such as not to oppose then we
would be obtaining electrical energy continuously without doing work, which is
impossible.

Magnetic field, due to wire, at the location of the coil is perpendicular to the plane of
the coil and directed inwards. When current is reduced to zero, this magnetic field
decreases. To oppose this decrease, induced current shall flow clockwise, so that its
magnetic field is also perpendicular to the plane of the coil and downward.
