Draw how you would connect the proximity switch in the below illustration so that it makes the LED turn on when actuated. (a) First, assuming the switch's internal transistor is configured to source current, connect the positive terminal of the LED to the collector of the transistor. Then, connect the emitter of the transistor to the negative terminal of the LED. Finally, connect the base of the transistor to the output of the proximity switch. What is the correct way to connect the proximity switch to make the LED turn on when actuated?
