After what happened in the school in Connecticut, there has been a lot of talk about putting more metal detector in schools to prevent things like that from happening again. It will most likely take time to actually get it in the majority of schools, but over a period of time there will be more and more schools with metal detectors and at least one officer on duty at all times inside the schools, which is now a mandatory thing in a lot of states.

Can wrapping a cell phone with foil keep it from going off in metal detectors?
No, foil is a metal and will just make it even more noticeable to a metal detector.
Any metal detector available which detect iron and not aluminium?
In general, most metal detectors have the capability to detect both iron and aluminum since they both conduct electricity. However, adjusting the sensitivity settings on some metal detectors may allow you to differentiate between the two types of metals to some extent. Specialized metal detectors for industrial purposes may offer more specific discrimination between different metals.
What is the working principle of a metal detector?
The operation of metal detectors is based upon the principles of electromagnetic induction. Metal detectors contain one or more inductor coils that are used to interact with metallic elements on the ground. The single-coil detector illustrated below is a simplified version of one used in a real metal detector. Muhammad Abubkr Saeed
What security measures have colleges been implementing since the shootings at Virginia Tech?
Colleges have implemented measures such as automatic notifications that go out to students via email messages and text messaging. This helps ensures students are locked down in areas they need to be. Since the shootings at Virginia Tech, most schools have place more restrictions on visitors. Some colleges even have metal detectors during special events to prevent another shooting incident.
When you have braces and you go to the airport will the metal detectors peep?
Metal detectors can be tuned in order to avoid the beeps on small metal objects. It does however depend on the detector in use, and the securitylevel it is set for. It also depends on the size of your braces. Some have more metal in them than others. Some have braces only for a few teeth, where as others have a full "railroad". The full railroad is more likely to produce a beep, but you can still travel. There is no problem with bracers and travelling by plane.

What are some things that people can do to stop school violence?
Hire more school security, use metal detectors, have a zero tolerance policy for fighting.
What do Photoelectric detectors detect?
Photoelectric detectors are more sensitive to slow, smoldering fires
How technology has enabled people to live more safer?

What do geologists have now that they didn't have 60 years ago?
Portable spectrometers used to determine what minerals are in an area of interest. Metal detectors. Much more knowledge about how the Earth formed.
When light is incident on a metal surface it emits electrons What happens if the intensity of light increases?
If the intensity of light increases, more photons will be incident on the metal surface, leading to a higher rate of electron emission through the photoelectric effect. This results in a higher current of emitted electrons.
