This is our final Maglev train design. We had to carry this cup of weights to the other side of the track safe and efficiently. In this picture you will see my bottom the car and the train track.

The improvements we made with our train were to put two strip magnets on the bottom instead of one. We put two on the bottom to make it more powerful so it can carry more weights.

Our final design was to two strip magnets on top of each other there are two of magnets on each side that doubled. For the bottom of the car, we put two strip magnets on each side. The spaces of the bottom of the car and the spaces of the track had to be lined up. I think it was successful because we doubled the magnets on the track. I also think it was successful because we lined up the spaces perfectly in place.

The things I learned doing this project was “The Engineering Design Process” (EDP). I also learned about how Maglev trains work. I also learned  about working with a group when I was working with my group. It was very tricky, we all had to listen to each other’s ideas. it was very fun.
