Why Is There a Magnet Inside My Dog?

The video explains the role of ferrite beads in blocking interference in electronic devices. Ferrite beads, made of iron-containing magnets, are used to ensure that only desired electric signals pass through cables, preventing unwanted noise. They are commonly found in chargers, microphones, car antennas, and RFID tags. Interference can occur from nearby circuits or wireless devices, and ferrite beads help mitigate this by acting as resistors, converting unwanted electric energy into heat. This ensures devices function correctly, such as preventing a pet tracker from picking up stray signals.
