Solution

The correct options are
A It is non-electrostatic in nature
B It is non-conservative in nature
D The lines of this field are closed curves
Correct answer is/are:
Option A: Induced emf in a closed loop is equal to rate of change of magnetic flux in the coil. Since, the induced emf is non-zero in the loop, electric field due to induced emf is non-conservative.
Option B: As the electric field produced by a changing magnetic field is not caused due to static charges and is non-conservative, it is non-electrostatic in nature.

Option C: Potential cannot be defined for a point for non-electrostatic field as work-done to move a charge in induced electric field is path dependent.

Option D: Induced electric field lines due to changing magnetic field form closed curves.
