Magnetic levitation demonstrated using a Dremel tool spinning a magnet at 266 Hz. The rotor magnet is 7x7x7 mm3 and the floater magnet is 6x6x6 mm3. This video show the physics described in the work ...

Using magnets to propel trains is not a new technology but it is still far from being perfected or even just implemented on a large scale. There are currently only four operating systems in the world ...

We explain how the Hyperloop could move people at speeds up to 480 kilometers per hour. The system works by reducing air pressure inside a sealed tube. Less air means far less friction slowing the pod ...

The world is experiencing a green revolution in energy, but wind power has not yet fully tapped into the residential homes market. While everybody is putting solar panels on the roofs of their homes, ...

Yes, everyone loves springs. But a mass hanging vertically on a spring is a great example of stable equilibrium. Why does this produce stable equilibrium? Let's start with a diagram of a mass hanging ...

[Andrey Mikhalchuk] built his own magnetic levitation device and you can too… if you have the patience. He’s not using electromagnets, like the Arduino levitator or the floating globe. Instead, a pair ...

One of the leading Hyperloop companies in the U.S. has revealed the magnetic levitation technology it will use to send pods at tremendous speeds of up to 1,200 kilometers per hour (760 miles per hour) ...

If interstate construction isn’t your thing, how about some magnetic levitation train construction? The privately funded magnet train (or maglev) planned to link the Orlando International Airport and ...
