A circular conducting coil of radius $1\, {m}$ is being heated by the change of magnetic field $\vec {B}$ passing perpendicular to the plane in which the coil is laid. The resistance of the coil is $2\, \mu\, \Omega$. The magnetic field is slowly switched off such that its magnitude changes in time as

$B=\frac{4}{\pi} \times 10^{-3}\, {T}\left(1-\frac{{t}}{100}\right)$

The energy dissipated by the coil before the magnetic field is switched off completely is $E=.....\,{m} J.$
