First of all, to recover the ts1 tablespace, do something like:
ALTER DATABASE CREATE DATAFILE '/appl/OraHome/oradata/MYDB/ts1.dbf'
AS '/appl/OraHome/oradata/MYDB/ts1.dbf';
RECOVER DATAFILE '/appl/OraHome/oradata/MYDB/ts1.dbf';
Now, on the other question, are you sure there's not another table called
EMP
owned by another USER like SCOTT? Query dba_segments view:
SELECT owner, segment_name, tablespace_name FROM dba_segments
WHERE segment_name = 'EMP';

why this table is not store inside ts1 ? as teddy was created with the

do I have to specify tablespace name in the create table emp script ?
this table is store inside SYSTEM tablespace

You will need to include some code to reproduce this.
