What is the difference between maglev trains and normal trains?
It's all in the name - maglev (short for magnetic levitation) uses magnetic fields to lift itself up, reducing friction and as a main source for propulsion.
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.
Why is the maglev train called the maglev train?
maglev is short for Magnetic Levitation.
How can I levitate?
You cannot. Levitation is not possibleAnswer:While levitation in the magic sense (good for flying carpets, saints and such after repeating a fer mystic phrases) is not possible, physics experiments have demonstrated ithat living organisms can levitate in very strong and managed magnetic fields. This falls short of the "levitate and fly around the room" ability, but it does demonstrate the process (See Links). If you cheat a bit and levitate a magnetic material a person can stand on the levitating platform.
What is a funny short quote?

Does the bullet train use magnetism to hover?
No, the bullet train does not hover using magnetism. It runs on tracks and is propelled by electric power. Magnetically levitated trains, also known as maglev trains, use magnetic levitation to hover and travel at high speeds without touching the tracks.

Do railway tracks get magnetised when trains run on tracks?
No, however some trains have a magnetized wheel to help grip the track. *Added - Electric trains do result in short term magnetizing of the train tracks. This can be seen on sharp curves where tiny rail slivers cling along in a magnetic pattern. In the US, trains do not have magnetized wheels, but rapid trainsit systems can include a track brake that uses a magnet to provide much faster braking than the wheels alone.
What are the short terms health risks with piercing?
infections
What type of wave is EM radiation?
Electromagnetic radiation consists of waves that are composed of oscillating electric and magnetic fields and do not require a medium to propagate. This type of wave is considered a transverse wave, with electric and magnetic fields perpendicular to the direction of propagation.
What term is used for German underground trains?
U-Bahn (short for Untergrundbahn)
Can a magnetic Field short out appliances?
No, a magnetic field alone cannot short out appliances. However, if a strong magnetic field causes a magnetically induced current to flow in the appliance's circuits, it could potentially damage the appliance.
