Maglev Post #1

The Maglev train is a train powered by magnets and levitates. My groups idea for the train is to put a disc magnet in the middle of the train and put strip magnets around it, and the track had nine disc magnets in the middle and also strip magnets around the nine disc magnets.

Our car didn’t levitate it just stayed on the bottom of the track. Me and my group were trying to fix mistakes, but it was very hard. I think we will try a different way to make it levitate.

This project was hard because my group thought we had north poles on all magnets, so it would repel and levitate, but we had some south poles. My group thought finding the poles on the magnets was hard because there was no labels on the sides, so we had to stick magnets together to see if they would attract to each other or repel.
