Answer:

The wire must be part of a closed circuit.

Step-by-step explanation:

A closed circuit in electric is what we called a wire that has a complete electrical connection in which electricity flows, where electric current flow from one end to another, in order for magnetism to induce an electric current the circuit has to be closed, or no current will flow.
