Given information
Given:
A small signal is transmitted through a cable which is made up of signal wire, insulator and a shield.
To determine, why the shield is necessary for signal transmission.
Step-by-step explanation
Step 1.
As the signal is transmitted as a current through a wire, if there is an external magnetic field, it will be influenced by the signal current, and then by Newton’s third law, the signal current will also be influenced by an external magnetic field and this will cause interference in the transmitted signal.
