# Induced current due to induced current

Say we have a square coil and a change in magnetic flux is created through the coil. Thus inducing a current in the coil whose magnetic field opposes this change inside the coil. If we assume(for simplicity) that the external field stops changing as soon as a current is induced. Then shouldn't the magnetic field due to the current induce another current which again results in a change in magnetic flux thus again inducing a current in opposite direction and so on. Thus we should always keep getting induced currents and the process should never stop.

Can somebody please point out where I am getting it wrong or add to my knowledge a concept I am missing?

Thanks

• A monotonous increasing function need not to diverge. In other words, it isn't because a current consists of infinitely many terms that the current is infinite (or diverge). Mar 17 '19 at 20:03
• I will edit my question. By infinite I meant that the process of current induction will go on forever Mar 17 '19 at 20:05
• Changing flux creates a voltage, not a current. This is a very common mistake. Apr 25 '20 at 2:12
