Answer 1

In your fragment FragA :

@Override
public void onResume() {
    super.onResume();
    getActivity().setRequestedOrientation(ActivityInfo.SCREEN_ORIENTATION_LANDSCAPE);

}


@Override
public void onPause() {
    getActivity().setRequestedOrientation(ActivityInfo.SCREEN_ORIENTATION_PORTRAIT);
    super.onPause();
}

onPause method code ensure your activity back to portrait orientation

First Fragment:

@Override
    public void onResume() {
        super.onResume();
        getActivity().setRequestedOrientation(ActivityInfo.SCREEN_ORIENTATION_PORTRAIT);

    }

Second Fragment:

     @Override
        public void onResume() {
            super.onResume();
 getActivity().setRequestedOrientation(ActivityInfo.SCREEN_ORIENTATION_UNSPECIFIED);
   }
