What is the function of a proximity detector?
Expert Solution & Answer
To determine
The function of a proximity detector.
Explanation of Solution
Proximity sensors or detectors are used to sense an object's presence without touching it directly. It stops the detector from wearing and allows it to handle hot red metals. Proximity detectors work on different principles. Many metal detectors detect only iron metals, while others could sense all types of metals.

The particle has a mass of 0.5 kg and is confined to move along the smooth
horizontal slot due to the rotation of the arm OA. Determine the force of the rod
on the particle and the normal force of the Isot on the particle when 0 = 30°.
The rod is rotating with a angular velocity of ė = 2rad/s and an angular
acceleration of = 3rad/s². Assume the particle only contacts one side of the
slot at any instant. To check your answer, please enter the normal force of the
slot onto the particle in Newtons.
