30. In conventional vehicle, power is dissipated due to friction. To reduce the loss of power due to friction MAGLEV train using a new technology called electro dynamic suspension (EDS) was developed by the Japanese. The magnetized coil running along the track called the guide way, repels the large magnets on the train's undercarriage, allowing the train to levitate between 1 to 10cm above the guideway.
The electric current supplied to the coils in the guideway walls is constantly alternating to change the polarity of the magentized coil. The hchange of the polarity causes the magnetic field in front of the train to pull the vehicle forward, while the magnetic field behind the train adds more forward thrust.
It works on the principle of Lenz's law. In this system a train moves without contact with track or it flots on a cushion of air, eliminating friction. In this system electromagnets are attached to the train and conducting coils on the track. When th etrain moves there is a change of flux in the conducting coil and due to induction the train is repelled by the track which lifts the train above the track.
It also has stability factor. If the train comes downward the repulsive force increases to restore its position and if it goes up, then repulsive force decreases to bring it down..
Due to induced circulating currents an opposing force acts on the train. A significant power is required to propel the train against the force at low speeds.

A )   It is lifted due to magnetic repulsion
B )   It moves due to magnetic attraction
