Why is there a whirring sound coming from the coil of my charging circuit?

My laptop emits a high-pitched whirring or buzzing noise directly from the charging port area, and this sound becomes more noticeable when the battery is charging or the system is under heavy load, which leads me to believe it is coil whine from the charging circuit. I am concerned whether this noise indicates a failing component or a potential safety hazard, and I would appreciate any advice on how to diagnose and resolve this issue safely.

    Carefully examine the charging port and surrounding area for any visible damage, burn marks, or swelling.
