Difference between Electromagnet and Maglev

Electromagnet vs. Maglev

An electromagnet is a type of magnet in which the magnetic field is produced by an electric current. Maglev (derived from magnetic levitation) is a system of train transportation that uses two sets of magnets, one set to repel and push the train up off the track as in levitation (hence Maglev, Magnetic-levitation), then another set to move the 'floating train' ahead at great speed taking advantage of the lack of friction.

Similarities between Electromagnet and Maglev

Electromagnet and Maglev have 3 things in common (in Unionpedia): Eddy current, Superconducting magnet, Superconductivity.

Eddy current

Eddy currents (also called Foucault currents) are loops of electrical current induced within conductors by a changing magnetic field in the conductor due to Faraday's law of induction.

Superconducting magnet

A superconducting magnet is an electromagnet made from coils of superconducting wire.

Superconductivity

Superconductivity is a phenomenon of exactly zero electrical resistance and expulsion of magnetic flux fields occurring in certain materials, called superconductors, when cooled below a characteristic critical temperature.

Electromagnet and Maglev Comparison

Electromagnet has 115 relations, while Maglev has 235. As they have in common 3, the Jaccard index is 0.86% = 3 / (115 + 235).
