How do you calculate the relative speed of two trains passing each other?
If two trains are passing each other the relative speed can be found by adding the individual speeds of the two trains. This applies if the trains are passing each other in opposite directions. Should one be passing the other and both be moving in the same direction, the difference of the individual speeds would be the relative speed of the trains.
Why do high speed trains slow down when they pass each other?
in case the speed they are traveling causes them to collide or rock against each other and scrape
Is there a limit to maglev trains speed?
Yes. Apart from anything else, there is the speed of light!
How do superconductors increase the speed of trains?
Superconductors allow the train to 'float' on a layer of magnetism. Since there is no friction (as there would be with wheels on a track) - the trains can reach much higher speeds.
What is constant in electromagnetic waves?
The speed is constant, at least for EM waves in a vacuum. The speed will still be approximately the same in other media, e.g. in glass. Different waves can have different frequences or wavelengths, but the speed will be the same.
How is a high speed rail made?
High speed rail trains generally run on standard tracks that are continuously welded together. The trains are made to have better aerodynamics so that speed can be increased.
Can other trains in Britan and Scotland travel faster than trains in the High Speed 1?
No, the other trains in Britain and Scotland cannot travel faster than the trains in the high speed one.
2 trains are moving with a great speed parallel to each other . They are on separate tracks side by side. Are their chances that they will collide?
By definition, if they are parallel to each other, they will never collide, so the chance is zero.

Do China have trains?
Not only does China have trains, but it can lay claim to some pioneering engineering feats, including being the first (and only) country in the world with high-speed trains running along conventional tracks achieving 350kph/217mph.
How do trains poerate?
Trains are mounted onto tracks on the rail road that steer them towards the pre-set directions they are meant to travel towards. Rail engineers then control the speed the train travels at, and when they should stop.
What kinds of trains are there?
speed trains and trains to transport people
You are riding on a train going north and you see a car traveling north parallel to the train yet the car seems to be going backward can someone explain this?
In this case, your train is moving faster than the other train. Say you were to take a radar gun on the train, and measure the speed of the other train from your seat. It would read a much lower speed than if you were standing beside the tracks as the trains pass. While both trains are moving, the other train is moving slower relative to you. Thus, it will seem that the train is moving backward, assuming that you take the speed from your seat.
What is the name of the Spanish trains?
It depends, there are different types. There is the Renfe which are trains thar are around madrid, then there is el AVE which is a high speed train that goes around spain.
Why do high speed trains slow down when they pass each other?

How trains and airplanes are alike?
Except that they both are types of transportation, they don't have much in common: different fuel, different capacity, different speed, different distances, all different
Do monorail trains ru non magnets?
Typically no. They run on metal wheels (Wuppertaler Schwebebahn) or rubber wheels (Disneyworld monorail). The Germany Maglev Train is currently the only commercial system that uses magnetic levitation for it's trains. It is in use in Germany and China or high speed tracks.
