Magnetic levitation is the method used for maglev trains. In order to levitate a train, superconducting magnetic coils are used to completely expel the magnetic fields which will cause the trains to fly off its track.

This "allows" the train to "float" above the tracks,
and by playing with the polarity of the magnets you can also cause the cars to move.

Why is the maglev train called the maglev train?
maglev is short for Magnetic Levitation.
What is the principle that bullet train work on?
The principle with which the bullet train works is the Magnetic Levitation. U can see the following link to know more about it. http://science.howstuffworks.com/maglev-train.htm
When were maglev trains first being used?
MagLev trains were first designed by a German man named Hermann Kemper. he was the first man to design and patent a MagLev train. The first MagLev train to be built and used was designed by Thyssen Henschel, another German, in the 1970's. The first passenger-carrying MagLev train was introduced in 1979 at the International Transportation Exposition in Hamburg, Germany. Thus began the MagLev train.
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.

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.
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.
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.
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
What is the weight of the maglev train?

What are the parts of a maglev train?
barney is on the train chewing chicken
Who is the inventor of the maglev train?
The maglev train was first invented in 1902 . It was invented by a guy named Alfred Zehan.
