Dear colleagues,
My question here refers to the EMF induced in an incomplete ring that is stationary amidst a time dependent magnetic field.
We know from Faraday's law that EMF is created upon changing the magnetic flux, either by changing the intensity of the field, or by changing the effective area enclosed by the conductor.
In the present case, the stationary ring isn't complete, namely part of it has been removed before placing it in the field. In other words, the conducting ring isn't closed.
What machinery or explanation acounts for the creation of an induced EMF in this case ? (there is no induced current in this case, of course).
Thank you, BC
