Modern trains are based on Maglev technology in which trains are magnetically leviated, which runs
its EDS Maglev system.
There are coils on both sides of wheels. Due to motion of trains, current induces in the coil of
track which levitate it. This is in accordance with Lenz's law. If trains lower down then due to
Lenz's law a repulsive force increases due to which train gets uplifted and if it goes much high
then there is a net downward force due to gravity. The advantage of Maglev train is that there is
no friction between the train and the track, thereby reducing power consumption and enabling the
train to attain very high speeds.
Disadvantage of Maglev train is that as it slows down the electromagnetic forces decreases and it
becomes difficult to keep it leviated and as it moves forward according to Lenz's law there is an
electromagnetic drag force. [JEE 2006]
