A conducting loop in the shape of a right angled isosceles triangle of height $10 \mathrm{~cm}$ is kept such that the $90^{\circ}$ vertex is very close to an infinitely long conducting wire (see the figure). The wire is electrically insulated from the loop. The hypotenuse of the triangle is parallel to the wire. The current in the triangular loop is in counterclockwise direction and increased at a constant rate of $10 \mathrm{As}^{-1}$. Which of the following statement($s$) is(are) true?

($A$) The magnitude of induced emf in the wire is $\left(\frac{\mu_0}{\pi}\right)$ volt

($B$) If the loop is rotated at a constant angular speed about the wire, an additional emf of $\left(\frac{\mu_0}{\pi}\right)$ volt is induced in the wire

($C$) The induced current in the wire is in opposite direction to the current along the hypotenuse

($D$) There is a repulsive force between the wire and the loop

A long solenoid of radius $\mathrm{R}$ carries a time $(t)-$dependent current $\mathrm{I}(\mathrm{t})=\mathrm{I}_{0} \mathrm{t}(1-\mathrm{t})$. A ring of radius $2 \mathrm{R}$ is placed coaxially near its middle. During the time interval $0 \leq t \leq 1$, the induced current $\left(\mathrm{I}_{\mathrm{R}}\right)$ and the induced $\mathrm{EMF}\left(\mathrm{V}_{\mathrm{R}}\right)$ in the ring change as
