AI Thread Summary
Maglev technology operates on the principle of magnetic repulsion, allowing objects to levitate without contact. The discussion references a YouTube video demonstrating how a pencil can be suspended in air using magnets, highlighting the practical application of this concept. The user seeks clarification on how to maintain the stability of the magnets used in such setups. Despite expressing enthusiasm for the project, there is disappointment over the lack of responses to the inquiry. Understanding the mechanics of magnetic levitation is essential for successful implementation in projects.

i was searching for maglev on internet for my school science projects and i found this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rrRG38WpkTQ" on youtube which i thought i was actually looking for it.
i know that maglev is based on repulsion of poles but how to keep our magnet to construct that type of thing which is shown i this video. in this video the girl suspends the pencil in air which is attached with two magnets and it is suspended by four magnet which she kept at bottom. if you'll watch that video it will help you to understand what i am trying to say.

thanks in advance for replying:smile:

Thread 'Why measure the speed of light in one direction?'

It may be shown from the equations of electromagnetism, by James Clerk Maxwell in the 1860’s, that the speed of light in the vacuum of free space is related to electric permittivity (ϵ) and magnetic permeability (μ) by the equation: c=1/√( μ ϵ ) . This value is a constant for the vacuum of free space and is independent of the motion of the observer. It was this fact, in part, that led Albert Einstein to Special Relativity.

Thread 'Maxwell stress tensor'

This is from Griffiths' Electrodynamics, 3rd edition, page 352. I am trying to calculate the divergence of the Maxwell stress tensor. The tensor is given as ##T_{ij} =\epsilon_0 (E_iE_j-\frac 1 2 \delta_{ij} E^2)+\frac 1 {\mu_0}(B_iB_j-\frac 1 2 \delta_{ij} B^2)##. To make things easier, I just want to focus on the part with the electrical field, i.e. I want to find the divergence of ##E_{ij}=E_iE_j-\frac 1 2 \delta_{ij}E^2##. In matrix form, this tensor should look like this...
