Une méthode pour empêcher les fils de branchement des haut-parleurs stéréo de capter les signaux RF consiste à enrouler les paires de fils:

  1. Aautour d'une barre de cuivre
  2. Bautour d'une barre de fer
  3. Cautour d'une cheville de bois
  4. Dautour d'un noyau de ferrite

Correct answer: D — autour d'un noyau de ferrite. Question tirée de la banque officielle d'ISDE.

Why

Wrapping speaker leads around a ferrite core works because the ferrite acts as a magnetic sponge that soaks up unwanted radio frequency energy, stopping it from turning into crackling noise in your stereo. The full explanation — and one for every question — is in Pro.
