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.
Why arent there more maglev trains in America?
Because there's little demand for them, most Americans prefer driving over riding trains for whatever reason.

How old are trains?
Over 500 years old.
What are two advantages that mag lev trains have over traditional fuel-burning trains?
1) Maglev is a much better way to move people and freight than by existing modes. It is cheaper, faster, not congested, and has a much longer service life2)Maglev is very energy efficient. Unlike autos, trucks, and airplanes, Maglev does not burn oil, but instead consumes electricity, which can be produced by coal-fired, nuclear, hydro, fusion, wind, or solar power plants (the most efficient source now being nuclear).
Why didn't they complete a maglev train in the UScities?
It's all to do with magnetic repulsion - when the train is moving, the two magnets have the same pole, and so repel each other, creating a "cushion". It's a bit like the principle of two bar magnets in school, matching north pole to north pole.
What transport was like in 1948?
Transportation in 1948 was not much different than it is now. There were airplanes, cars, trains, and even ships. However, newer models of these types of transportation have developed over the years.
Engineers have developed magnetic trains that travel at speeds of over 200 miles per hour. If more of these trains are used, how might society change Choose the best answer?

What kind of train use the power of magnitism to float?
Maglev trains use the pushing power of magnetism to float over the train tracks. It's similar of pushing 2 north pole magnets away from each other.
What are the advantages to the maglev train?
MagLev (or magnetic levitation) trains have no moving parts and therefore need much less maintenance and are nearly silent. They run on superconducting magnets and don't require all of the fuel that current trains do and reduce the amount of carbon dioxide released into the atmosphere. The superconducting magnets are run alongside each other. This would mean that for the train to stop running both magnets would have to fail in the time it would take the train to reach the next stopping point which is only a few minutes. The probability of this happening would be less than once in millions of years of operation.And I like the way it looks!!!!!!!!! The electromagnets that are used in the train are easily turned of so there will be hardly and chance of missing your stop. They also go 359mph. Three times the speed of an average car.it also has less friction henrymeadstinks.
