The Science of Superconductors and Maglev Trains

Defined STEM - The Science of Superconductors and Maglev Trains

Objective :
Students will explore the properties of superconductors and how they can be used to run maglev trains.
Guiding Questions :
Available with subscription.
Resources :
Video : Maglev Trains
Gliding on a wave of electromagnetic force, a maglev train could travel at 300 miles per hour or faster. Designer-engineers describe the mechanics and future benefits of such superconductor trains.
