I have been reading about the electric field induced on a metal ring due to an increasing magnetic field directed along the axis of the ring and the electric field lines are found to form concentric circular loops. This implies that the electric field formed is not conservative. Why is it so? Are electric field due to free charges and those due to changing magnetic field two entirety different things? Please provide an intuitive and less mathematical explanation as I am just a high school student with knowledge of basic calculus.
