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!
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 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.
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.

Lenz's Law
It's primary usage is to determine the nature of an induced EMF from changes in the magnetic flux through a circuit. However, you must use Faraday's Law (and a unit conversion factor) to determine the SIZE of such an EMF.
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
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.
The direction of an induced emf or current is such that the magnetic field created by the induced current opposes the change in magnetic flux that created the current.

The size of the generated electromotive force (emf) is determined by the rate at which the magnetic field changes within a circuit, and the number of turns in the coil. The direction of the emf is determined by Lenz's law, which states that the induced current will flow in a direction that opposes the change in magnetic field that produced it.
In case (a), the induced emf is the electromotive force generated in a coil or conductor due to a changing magnetic field.
Statically induced emf is produced by the relative motion between a conductor and a magnetic field, while dynamically induced emf is generated due to a change in the magnetic field strength experienced by a conductor. Statically induced emf does not require any physical movement of the conductor, while dynamically induced emf is produced when the magnetic field changes over time.
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.
