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 is the maglev train called the maglev train?

maglev is short for Magnetic Levitation.


What is the force that lifts up and moves maglev trains?

It cannot. The magnets used for a maglev train must be engineered and built at very tight tolerances to allow a maglev train to function. Each magnet is specifically built for the maglev train, they cannot be "strengthened" versions of a magnet not made specifically for the train.


What is the name of the german-made maglev train?

The Transrapid.


When was the development of the maglev train started?

Here's the brief history of The Maglev Train. Maglev's Full Form is Magnetic Levitation. 1902- First magnetic train invented by Alfred Zehden of Germany. 1959-Design for first magnetic train made. 1979-First magnetic train built in Hamburg, Germany. (it was closed three months later) 1984-First magnetic train that people can ride built in Birmingham, England.

How does balance effect the maglev train?

It doesn't. The maglev train is engineered for weight distribution that is unaffected by normal loading.


What is electromagnet train?

You must mean a Maglev train. A Maglev train operates on maglev (magnetic levitation). It uses electromagnets (and possibly superconductors) that repel each other to lift the train above the ground to reduce as much friction as possible.


How do you people get on maglev trains?

They get on from an opening passage way that comes out of the maglev train
