How fast do the Maglev vehicles go?
The go fast 250 km/h and more
Are there any maglev vehicles in the US?
yes, there is,Added: I don't believe that ther are any operaing in a commercial application.
What other ways could maglev be used as?
This cannot be answered in the way it was asked. Maglev refers to magnetic levitation trains. This is limited to passenger trains. There are many systems in use on a maglev train system, not simply magnetic levitation - the magnetic levitation is in use in other systems, such as manufacturing, and has even been examined as a part of launching space vehicles, but is not referred to as "maglev".
Why is the maglev train called the maglev train?
maglev is short for Magnetic Levitation.
Abbreviation for magnetic levitation?
"Maglev" is.
What happens to maglev trains when they encounter ice?
Maglev means magnetic levitation. So the train is not touching the track, in fact once the engines are fired up, the entire train lifts about one cm off the track. So ice is irrelevant to a maglev vehicle. Unlike conventional vehicles which use friction as a braking force, e.g., tires on a road, a maglev uses eddy currents produced in the track as a result of magnetic force as both propulsion and braking methods.
How do you people get on maglev trains?
They get on from an opening passage way that comes out of the maglev train
How does magnetism keep the cars suspended on a maglev train?
Magnetism elevates the maglev train because like forces repel. Maglev trains are not suspended, but are elevated.
Can maglev train built underground?
Yes, maglev trains can be built underground. In fact, the majority of the Chuo Shinkansen maglev line being built in Japan will be underground.
Who invented MAGLEV?
Earnshaw from Cambridge University , he is the first man who posted the principle of maglev. But Hermann Kemper, a German engineer, is the first man who is proposed as the farther of maglev.
What type of train uses magnets?
The maglev train floats over its track using an electromagnet. Maglev trains have managed speeds in excess of 370mph. A model of the maglev train uses two permanent magnets to get the model to float over the track.Describe how the magnets must be arranged to get the model Maglev Train to float.
Will maglev trains come to India WHEN?
maglev trains will appear very soon in NCR regions
