1. To display Google map in the emulator, you can use a "browser key" from google developer console, instead of the Android key.This is because the android key is private therefore will only display the map on a real device, however by using a browser key, in your manifest file , you can run your map on an android emulator. To create a browser key goto "https://code.google.com/apis/console/" , for the website, leave it blank and just click create. Use the generated key in your manifest file an this should display the map.

2. I also suggest you use install gene-motion emulator, download and install google play services on it and you will be good to go.
