Hi , one of my electric field and how it works questions.
My friend made a drawing that will help you visualize what i mean better.
So we have a sphere made from wire or metal beams etc doesn't matter.Now we wrap wire around it and leave the ends separate, we attach a circuit of a resistor and an ammeter , for the sake of it a voltmeter in parallel.
Now we put a smaller sphere inside this bigger one , using electronics we switch the spheres on , one at a time , then we switch the other one on while the first one off and so on at a rate of "x" hz.
Now is there current induced in the windings and does this act like a transformer , only the difference that instead of primary windings which create magnetic field in a iron core which in turn creates current in the secondary, here we have a sphere made of metal and windings around it. Because the field strength inside the sphere is zero , all the field resides outside of the sphere so of every winding one side becomes polarized , the field is pushing on the electrons in the wire , now when the outer sphere is switched off and the inner turned on the same thing happens only in the opposite manner.
I will add information if necessary tomorrow as it's late and I am tired.
Thanks for answers :)
