"Induced" is the verb you are looking for. A current is induced in the secondary circuit by the current in the first changing, provided both conductors are close enough for the driving current's electro-magnetic field to enclose the second conductor.
Note that word "changing". Direct current produces a field but that remains constant and does not induce a secondary current, as a.c. does.

What determines whether an induced current is a direct current or an alternating current?
There is no such thing as an 'induced current'. What is 'induced' is a voltage. The direction of the induced voltage is determined by the direction of the changing current that induces that voltage, because the induced voltage will always act to oppose that change in current. So, if the current is increasing, then the direction of the induced voltage will act to opposethe increase in current. If the current is decreasing, then the direction of the induced voltage will act to sustainthat current.
Difference between back EMF and induced EMF?
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!
Why the induced EMF is negative when the voltage in the first coil increasing?
It's an increasing current, not voltage, that induces an e.m.f. into a coil. The reason that the induced e.m.f. opposes the increasing current is all to do with the Law of the Conservation of Energy.
What is induction of electric current?
According to Farady's law, whenever the flux linking with the coil changes, emf will induce in that coil.Actually the material should oppose the flux changes, that opposition is the induced current. Induced current will set own flux, opposite to that of the flux changes.For further details, refer lenz law.
What rule should you use in order to determine the direction of induced EMF in a coil?
The direction of an induced voltage is such that it always acts to oppose any change of current which causes it.So, for example, during the first quarter-cycle of a sine wave, when the current is increasing, the induced voltage acts oppose that change (increase) -in other words, it acts in the opposite direction to that current. During the second quarter-cycle of a sine wave, when the current is decreasing, the induced voltage again acts opposethat decrease that change (decrease) -in other words, it acts in the same direction to that current -trying to sustain that current.

Who formulated a law for determining the direction of the induced current in a conductor?
There is no such thing as an 'induced current'. What is 'induced' is a voltage. If the conductor into which that voltage is induced forms a complete circuit, then a current will result. But it's the voltage that's induced, NOT the current! The direction of the induced voltage is explained by Lenz's Law which, in simple terms, tells us that the direction of the inducted voltage is always such that it will oppose the change in current that causes it. So the induced voltage will oppose any increase in current, but will act in the same direction as a reduction in current.
Do you add electrical supply voltage and induced voltage of a coil to get total voltage on the coil?
The induced voltage acts to oppose any change in current that is causing it. So, if the current is increasing, then the induced voltage will act in the opposite direction to the supply voltage; if the current is decreasing, then the induced voltage will act in the same direction as the supply voltage.

Is flow of induced current necessary when induces emf is being produced?
There is no such thing as an 'induced current'. Voltages are induced, not currents. If a voltage is self-induced into a coil, then that voltage will oppose any change in current. If a voltage is mutually-induced into a separate coil, no current will flow unless that coil is connected to a load.
What are the reasons why a current is induced in a coil?
Current is not induced into a coil. It's voltage that is induced into a coil. If the coil is connected to a load, or even short circuited, then a current will flow as a result of the induced voltage -but it's the voltage, not the resulting current, that's induced!Voltage is induced into a coil because the the changing magnetic field, due to the change in current (0 to Imax or vice versa) applied to that coil. The process is called 'self induction'.
Is flow of induce current necessary when induce emf is being produce?
There is no such thing as an 'induced current'. Voltages are induced, not currents. If a voltage is self-induced into a coil, then that voltage will oppose any change in current. If a voltage is mutually-induced into a separate coil, no current will flow unless that coil is connected to a load.
How was current produce or induced?
Current is induced and not produced. when an electric wire is passed through magnetic field the current is induced in the electric wire, this electric wire is enamelled copper conductor of a rotor.AnswerCurrent is never 'induced' into a conductor. It is a voltage that is induced. If that conductor is then part of a complete circuit, then the induced voltage will cause a current to flow. The induced voltage will occur even when the conductor is open circuited.
Can a constant dc current can induce a steady state voltage in a transformer?
No, the current has to change for a voltage to be induced in the transformer.
What is difference between induced voltage and induced current?
Just as a current flowing through a wire will produce a magnetic field, so a wire moving through a magnetic field will have a current flowing through it. This is called electromagnetic induction and the current in the wire is called induced current. A stationary wire in the presence of a changing magnetic field also has an induced current. A changing magnetic field can be produced either by moving a magnet near to the stationary wire or by using alternating current. A stationary wire in a magnetic field which is not changing will have no current induced in it. You will sometimes see this effect described as induced voltage. Strictly speaking, you will only get an induced current in the wire if it is part of a complete circuit. A wire which is unconnected at both ends will have a difference in voltage between the ends (a potential difference) but current can only flow when the wire is in a circuit. Induced current is used in electricity generation and transformers.Another AnswerThere is no such thing as an 'induced current', only an 'induced voltage'. Current will flow only if the conductor into which the voltage is induced forms part of a closed circuit.
Is induced voltage and induced currrent the same?
Induced voltage is alsocalled ghost or phantom voltage as if you apply a load it vanishes. induced voltage will be potential/electrical pressure. Amperage is the actual flow of current being used, Watts being its calibration of total power used.
What are the cause of induced emf?
A change in current causes a voltage to be induced into an inductive circuit, which opposes that change of current. This is because the change in current is accompanied by a change in magnetic flux which 'cuts' the conductors and induces a voltage into them.
