Does the Poincaré inequality hold on annular domains?

Does the following Poincaré inequality hold $$\int_{B_{r_2}\setminus B_{r_1}} |f-\bar{f}|^2 dx \leq C(r_2-r_1)^2 \int_{B_{r_2}\setminus B_{r_1}} |\nabla f|^2 dx,$$ where $B_r$ denotes a ball of radius ...

A Grönwall-type inequality for $u(t)\le\alpha(t)+\int_0^t\max(u(s),\beta(s))\:{\rm d}s$?

Quick question: Are we able to show a Gronwall-type inequality assuming that $$u(t)\le\alpha(t)+\int_0^t\max(u(s),\beta(s))\:{\rm d}s,$$ where $\alpha$ is nondecreasing (or constant) and $\beta$ is ...
