It is tempting to speculate that by symmetry the "emf" (a term not allowed
by some PHYS-L participants) induced in a circular arc of central angle A
should be just A/(2 pi) times that induced around the corresponding complete
circle. By the same reasoning, the emf induced in a straight segment would
be just one-fourth of that induced around a square of side equal to the
length of the segment.
