Ferromagnetism
Ferromagnetism is a mechanism by which some materials show magnetic properties. Iron and magnetite, an oxide of iron, are two naturally occurring materials that show the property of ferromagnetism. The word ferromagnetism is derived from the Latin name o…

Explanation of Solution

Introduction:

A magnetic field is associated with current. As the signal varies with time, this magnetic field also varies. If there is a presence of external magnetic field nearby, they would interact causing an interference in the signal (noise).

A shield is necessary to disable this interaction reducing the chance of noise. Also, it a shield protects machinery and people operating it from getting accidently electrocuted.

In a shield cable both, total current in the wire and shield combination, are zero. So, to outside there will be no magnetic field formed (by the combination).
