An induced electromotive force (emf) is an induced voltage. Voltage (emf) causes current flow, and this induced voltage will cause a current that is called the induced current.
We might also add that the induced current will cause a magnetic field to expand about the current path, and this field will "sweep" the conductor. The sweeping of the conductor by that expanding magnetic field will set up an emf that will oppose the emf that was creating it.
CommentTechnically, there is no such thing as an 'induced current'. It is voltage that is induced. Any current flows as a result of that induced voltage being applied to a load. But that current is certainly NOT induced!

Does motional emf call induced emf?
yes indused emf is also called motional emf. If an open coil is subjected to a variable magnetic field, at the ends of the coil a potential difference is induced which is called induced emf. If a coil is connected to an emf source and switched on, the rising current will produced an variable magnetic field which in turn produces an emf. It is called back emf.
If a conductor placed in electric field is there any emf induced in the conductor?
one condition for the above question is either conductor or magnetic field must be rotating.considering rotating field and stationary conductor,the magnetic flux will be cut up by conductor resulting in the induced emf in the conductor.
What is the difference between a DC motor and a generator in terms of EMF?
During the operation of a DC motor, EMF is created across its terminals using an external source. Whereas, in a DC generator EMF is created across its terminal based on principle of dynamically induced EMF. So talking in terms of EMF, in DC motor EMF is consumed by the motor coil and utilized to rotate the axle. On the other hand, in DC generator EMF developed across coil is transfered to a load or a battery and consumed by them.
What are the Example each for self induced and mutually induced emf?
if an emf is induced in a coil due to the current flowing through itself is called SELF INDUCTANCE. on the other hand if an emf is induced on another coil due to the current flowing through the previous coil then it is called MUTUAL INDUCTANCE. suppose there are two coils A and B a current is flowing through A. now if the flux produced due to this current induce an emf on the same coil A, then it is SELF INDUCTANCE, and if it produce emf on B, then it is MUTUAL INDUCTANCE due to coil A.
What is the thermal emf?
when 2 different cpnducting materials r brought together and given a supply, there exist a potential difference between the 2.since these are 2 differt materials and an emf will be induced which is called thermo emf

Difference between statically and dynamically induced emf?
STATICALLY INDUCED EMFThe emf induced in a coil due to change of flux linked with it (change of flux is by the increase or decrease in current) is called statically induced emf.Transformer is an example of statically induced emf. Here the windings are stationary,magnetic field is moving around the conductor and produces the emf.DYNAMICALLY INDUCED EMFThe emf induced in a coil due to relative motion of the conductor and the magnetic field is called dynamically induced emf.example:dc generator works on the principle of dynamically induced emf in the conductors which are housed in a revolving armature lying within magnetic field
What is emf induced in a motor's coil that tends to reduce the current in the coil of the motor?
BACK emf induced in a motor's coil that tends to reduce the current in the coil of the motor. The answer should be 'back'.
What is Back emf of DC motor?
In dc motor, the armature conductors are revolving in the magnetic field and emf is induced in the armature conductors. The direction of the induced emf is in opposite direction to the applied voltage as per Flemings left hand rule. So, the induced emf in motor is called as back emf or counter emf. Vydehi
What is the difference between Counter-electromotive force and back emf?
They are Same for dc motor
If a conductor placed in electric field is there any emf induced in the conductor?
one condition for the above question is either conductor or magnetic field must be rotating.considering rotating field and stationary conductor,the magnetic flux will be cut up by conductor resulting in the induced emf in the conductor.
Can emf induced without an alternating magnetic flux?
No. EMF can only be induced in a wire by a varying magnetic flux. It does not have to be alternating, but it must be varying.
How can you say that ac emf is induced in the coil?
When we place a current carrying conductor in a magnetic field emf is induced in a coil. we can knoe it by connecting voltmeter.
Is emf a scalar or vector quantity?
Emf has direction within a current loop, though it is not scalar. It's a bit between though as direction should be otherwise accounted for when discussing induced Emf. Not quite either.

What are the differences between potential difference and emf?
emf is present mainly in battery and potential difference is mainly present in circuit. emf is greater than p.d and p.d is greater than emf.......the units of both are Volt.....
