i am making a magnetically levitated train for my 8th grade science fair project and i need some help!
questian #1. how can i make the whole track one big electromagnet??
(the track is a 3/4 inch square steel pipe) if i wrap the whole thing in copper wire and put a current through it will that make it an electromagnet??
questian #2.once i get the track to work is there anything that i need to do to the train base itself to get it to repel off of the track??
questian #3. after i get the train and the track to work how do i get the train to propell itself down the track, and stop, and reverse, and so on...?? (without needing to manually do it all myself)[b(]
