My project is about magnetic levitation and how that contributes to friction and this is tested through models trains. I chose it to help others understand how friction is a big part of something moving. My conclusion is that using magnetic levitation will take out friction out of the movement and will make it faster than a normal train. My project is important because it helps us understand friction and its effect on everything.
This is an interesting application of magnetics which has very useful real-life applications.
Your description of how to build the mag-lev train was very thorough. Your slide design was easy to read. Your graphs for your results were also nice, and they conveyed your results clearly.
