A current loop, by itself, does not produce a very uniform magnetic field. People use a Maxwell coil, Helmholtz coil, or a long solenoid, when they want a relatively uniform magnetic field.
What is the magnetic field in a current loop?
There are two magnetic fields in a current loop. There is the magnetic field caused by the current, such as what is found in a straight wire, and is given by B=ui/2pr where B is the magnetic field; u is the permeability constant; i is the current; p is pi; r is the radial distance from the wire. If the wire is now circular and has a radius R, then one can calculate the magnetic field inside the wire loop. Granted this is complex, but this is the idea.
The second field is perhaps a little bit more practical, but really never discussed. One can solve this problem by assuming a vector A, the current density, then take the curl of vector A, and this is the magnetic field inside the current loop. The question is what is the vector A? The current density vector inside the loop is the product ir/R and a unit vector function representing a circle. This current density is only valid for r less than or equal to R. Here the r is measured from the center of the circle. For r greater than or equal to r, the current density is the product iR/r and the unit vector function representing a circle. This is complicated by the selection of the coordinate system representing the circle. My preferance is to use spherical coordinates, but most books use Cartesian coordinates, and as such the expressions are complicated i.e., r in spherical coordinates is r but in Cartesian coordinates is (x^2+y^2+z^2)^1/2. I hope this gives some insight to the question. I do have a solution in spherical coordinates, but cannot furnish it because of my inability to use greek letters.

increase the strenght of the magnetic field. :)
It produces a current.
A current is induced in the conductor by the moving magnetic field (relative to the wire, the field is moving) I guess induction might be the term you are looking for.Another AnswerMoving a magnet through a loop of wire will induce a voltage, not a current, into a coil. If the coil forms a closed loop, then a current will result. But it's a voltage that's being induced, not a current -the current is merely the result of that voltage.
Magnetic flux through a loop is just a measurement of the strength of the magnetic field passing through the loop, and since magnetic field strength is directly related to magnetic force, magnetic force is directly related to the magnetic flux passing through the loop.
in the same direction as the field

moving a loop of wire through a magnetic Field. The rotation of a coil of copper wire trough a magnetic field changes magnetic field as "seen" from the coil inducing an alternating current.
increase the strenght of the magnetic field. :)
why, if the same current flows in a wire coil and a single loop, the magnetic field inside the coil stronger than the field inside the loop
It produces a current.
emf will be induced
No it will not. In order to get electrical activity you need motion. Either the magnet or the wire must move.
Create relative motion between a magnetic field and a loop of wire.

When a conductive loop is moved through a magnetic field, an electric current is produced in the wire loop. This is the basis of electrical generators.
yes the perpendicular component of earths magnetic field passes through the loop even if the car is moving above it or not , but no current is induced in the loop since it is not moving
