Can someone please help me with the following thought experiment?
There are straight two lengths of cable. One is medium gauge twin speaker ("figure 8") and the other is single core 75 ohm coax. Each length thus has two conductors. On each cable, I then separately short its distant end so current is flowing oppositely in each adjacent conductor. The near ends are connected individually to the same type of audio signal source.
In which cable, comprised of two conductors, will the EMF "cancellation" be more complete? What electrodynamic effect, if any, does the greater surface area of the screen have in the case of the coax?
Finally, would cancellation be more effective with higher voltage and lesser current, or vice versa? I assume here an even trade-off between current and voltage, e.g. 1V at 12A or 12V at 1 amp.
