on which basic does the working of meatl detector depend
Answers
Metal detector. The basis or principle on which the metal detector works is as follows.
"Along with the electromagnetic induction, metal detectors may contain 1 or more than 1 induction coils.''
In most of the original metal detectors, the 1 induction coil is situated in it.
Metal detectors detects the following metals - Gold, Iron, Lead, Silver and other metals. Although they are mostly used to detect gold metal.
Metal detectors are used to uncover relics, detect guns, knives and mines that are buried underground.
Uses: They are used by the military for security purposes.
Principle: The principle behind metal detectors is "Use electricity to make magnetism and magnetism to make electricity".
Working: It consists of a transmitter coil made of a copper wire which creates a magnetic field around it when electrified.
- If the detector is over a metal, the atoms inside the metal are affected by the moving magnetic field which in turn creates some electrical activity in the metal.
- This results in the formation of a second magnetic field around the metal which is responsible for triggering the alarm through the electricity created.
