In loop 1, X increases, so induced current will produce a magnetic field i.e. it will flow acw. In loop 2; decreases, so induced current will increase magnetic field i.e., it flows ac w

$1 - c w, 2 - c w$

$1 - c w, 2 - a c w$

$1 - a c w, 2 - c w$

$1 - a c w, 2 - a c w$

In loop 1, $X$ increases, so induced current will produce a magnetic field i.e. it will flow $a c w$ .
In loop 2; decreases, so induced current will increase magnetic field i.e., it flows $a c w$

1−cw,2−cw

1−cw,2−acw

1−acw,2−cw

1−acw,2−acw

In loop 1, X increases, so induced current will produce a magnetic field i.e. it will flow acw. In loop 2; decreases, so induced current will increase magnetic field i.e., it flows acw

$1 - c w, 2 - c w$

$1 - c w, 2 - a c w$

$1 - a c w, 2 - c w$

$1 - a c w, 2 - a c w$

In loop 1, $X$ increases, so induced current will produce a magnetic field i.e. it will flow $a c w$ .
In loop 2; decreases, so induced current will increase magnetic field i.e., it flows $a c w$
