What is the diffirence maglev train and the hovercraft?
A "maglev" or "magnetic levitation" train is suspended over the magnetically polarized rail. A hovercraft is more like a low-flying helicopter, using fans to blow air down underneath the vehicle. A hovercraft is sometimes known as a "ground effect vehicle", because it compresses air between the ground and the hovercraft. Hovercraft do not require tracks, and are equally able to "fly" over land and water.
Why is the maglev train called the maglev train?
maglev is short for Magnetic Levitation.
Is hovercraft and a maglev train similar?
They are similar only in that they both aim to reduce the friction that come from the vehicle moving over the water or rails. The means is quite different. The hovercraft uses a cushion of air and the maglev uses the repulsive force of a magnetic field.
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.
Does Italy have Maglev train?
no
What controls the levitation of the cars of a Maglev train?
The levitation of a maglev train is controlled by safety critical microprocessors (computers).
How does balance effect the maglev train?
It doesn't. The maglev train is engineered for weight distribution that is unaffected by normal loading.
How do you people get on maglev trains?
They get on from an opening passage way that comes out of the maglev train
Similarties between a Maglev vehicle and a Hovercraft?
Neither touches the ground with anything solid like wheels.
What is the weight of the maglev train?
== ==
What are the parts of a maglev train?
barney is on the train chewing chicken
How does the maglev train differ from a normal train?
The biggest difference is that a maglev train is not touching anything while it is traveling, while a normal train is sitting on steel rails at all times.
