The four stator conductors (A, A', B and B') of a rotating machine are carrying DC currents of the same value, the directions of which are shown in the figure (i). The rotor coils $$a$$-$$a'$$ and $$b$$-$$b'$$ are formed by connecting the back ends of conductors '$$a$$' and '$$a'$$' and '$$b$$' and '$$b'$$', respectively, as shown in figure (ii). The e.m.f. induced in coil $$a$$-$$a'$$ and coil $$b$$-$$b'$$ are denoted by $${E_{a - a'}}$$ and $${E_{b - b'}}$$, respectively. If the rotor is rotated at uniform angular speed $$\omega$$ rad/s in the clockwise direction then which of the following correctly describes the $${E_{a - a'}}$$ and $${E_{b - b'}}$$?
