Maglev is a contraction of Magnetic Levitation. Magnets of the same polarity are used to levitate the train so that there is no friction between train and rail. Electromagnets of opposing polarity are switched on in sequence ahead of the train to pull it forward.

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.
What force is used in Maglev trains?
(Electro) magnetism. magnetic attraction and repulsion.
What basic system do all maglev trains use?
[Electro]magnetism and superconductivity.
Write short note on maglev trains?
Maglev (short for magnetic levitation) trains are trains utilizing [electro]magnetism and superconductors to float train cars that would not require the use of traditional rails which are a source of friction in many current generation high-speed railcars.
Will maglev trains come to India WHEN?
maglev trains will appear very soon in NCR regions
How can maglev trains help your country?
Maglev trains do not use gas, so they are good for the environment.
Are there maglev trains in Singapore?
Yes.
How do you people get on maglev trains?
They get on from an opening passage way that comes out of the maglev train
Which country has the most maglev trains?
China
What are maglev trains?
# It is a Magnetic Levatation train.
Who developed maglev trains?
Alfred zehdan
Is there any valid research done on mobility through magnetism other that a train rail?
Devices that allow frictionless travel have been present throughout science fiction. At current transportation using magnetism is limited to the same principles that allow Maglev Trains to function.
