Bus Train ( Magnetic Levitation Train )

a passenger train, a roller coaster has no engine or power source of its own. For most of the ride,

Introduction- The East Bay area is an economically diverse community with many satisfactory and unsatisfactory aspects. Each city had its differences and distinctions in people, settings, and cleanliness. As the bus left the station and went around the corner I could tell that we were in a low poverty city. With loose trash and debris in front of houses and apartment buildings, the area looked torn down and not very visual pleasing. Already familiar with the city of Emeryville I knew to expect a more upscale location. With plenty of name brand stores, and new apartment complexes, it was obvious this city was clean and very different from the previous location. As the bus

What it was like riding the orphan trains changed with time. Some of the first orphan trains were a little better than the cattle cars with seats and bathrooms. Later on in time, as more money became available, the riders were able to ride in better cars. The last orphan train riders rode in Pullman cars ( which were also known as sleeping cars).

Transportation is an everyday occurrence in today’s society; it takes you where you need to in a timely manner. In the article “The Bus, a Modern Panacea” by Lester Detroit, he explains that taking the VTA is a “cure-all” solution. Detroit notes that the VTA is convenient because students do not have to drive around to find parking space. He revels that students can save money with the free Echo Pass that is provided with registered SJSU students. He also notes that taking the VTA helps with the environmental problems because it solves traffic congestion, rising oil consumption, and carbon pollution.

Ever since the development of the first few examples of rocket power, it was evident that this was technology that was going to change the face of the world forever. Since missiles and other weaponry were now able to be launched across continents and even oceans, it made the world feel a whole lot smaller. In turn, this was the technology that “had its ultimate foundation in the simple power rocket which originated as a weapon of war” . However, this technology underwent an extreme transformation over time and was eventually the basis of the technology used to put spacecrafts up in space. One of the main rockets that is going to be discussed in this paper is the V2 rocket designed by the Germans during World War II, as much of the technology that put spacecrafts in space came from this rocket. Another aspect that is going to be

“Orphans, Foundlings, waifs, half-orphans, street Arabs, and street urchins were terms used to describe abandoned children” (DiPasquale). In New York City alone, there were 30,000 homeless children in the 1850’s (The Orphan Trains). Children averaging from six to eighteen lived very homeless and neglecting lives and had little to no hope for a successful life. Children’s lives, orphanages, and Orphan Trains changed the way children lived during the 1800s.

The church bus -- which had been named La Ranfla del Barrio, by the assortment of Mexican and Central American high school kids on board -- pulled up around 6:30 a.m. Most of the kids on board, had arrived around 5:30 a.m. Most of the high school seniors had never left their barrios, much less taken a bus to a protest.

In reading the 2011 New York Times article “At Front of Brooklyn Bus, a Clash of Religious and Women’s Rights”, author Christine Haughney brings to light a situation regarding a Brooklyn bus which is most commonly used to transport Hasidic Jews throughout the city, and while the bus is occasionally patronized by those who aren’t of the Jewish faith, traditional rules involving the separation of men and women are expected to be followed by all riders regardless of religious background. Not surprisingly, this is a complicated situation with concerns of religious and gender discrimination for both Jewish patrons and non-Jewish patrons, along with the responsibility of local government to protect and respect all involved. Even while considering

Have you ever considered taking the buses, not the car, to your destination? According to his essay “The Bus, a Modern Panacea,” Lester Detroit states that the VTA system offers a fundamental solution for not only the SJSU student but includes most people who commutes to school or work. He claims that cars have the negative side effects for the environment problems; furthermore, cars are the problem of both traffic congestion and wasting time and money. He insists that students should “drop their car culture and create a new bus culture.” Bus is the “cure-all solution” for students. As for students, I strongly disagree with Detroit’s point of view that VTA system is a suitable transportation for students to commute. It is important for students to realize that not a lot of people know how to transit, taking the bus is inconvenient, safety concern, and pollution.

Diesel engines are also more reliable than locomotives. Electromechanical commuter train make kinetic from electrical energy. The electricity will supply the electric motors. Therefore, there is a constant electricity 3,000V of electrical network or single-phase AC electric motor 25,000V.I over the railway to keep the motor at a constantly high voltage. Commuter train can also use dual engines.

Riding on top of a moving train is very simpleminded and making your friends go up o the top with you is just absurd. Thats what Samuel and his friends were doing that afternoon. He is doing something he thought was fun and exhilarating, while his friends aren't enjoying it as much but were just going along with everything he's doing. He wasn’t being aware of his surroundings and he didn't realize that he could get seriously injured or injure one of his best friends. His immaturity and disobedience to the elderly was shown throughout the whole train ride.

High-speed electric trains today are extremely fast, but they are mostly used in Europe and other places, like Japan. Future trains in America, and around the world, could have a more futuristic look to them. A man named Elon Musk proposed the idea of a “vac-train” after he “revived an

When you start moving that's when the motor lets go then you have kinetic energy when it falls it builds up enough energy to propel the rest of the ride. Even though you don't notice or think about it gravity is the reason you stay on the track.

Along with hover boards and flying cars, high-speed rail is one of the most iconic futuristic technologies discussed today. With great success, European and Asian countries such as Germany, France, Japan and China have been enjoying bullet trains for decades. Japan has been a leading innovator of high-speed trains, and has currently developed a train capable of 315 mph (Shadbolt). This MagLev is revolutionizing public transport and changing how the world view trains forever. The average European high-speed train can travel at speeds in excess of 220 mph (“The 10”). The United States is falling behind in this highly efficient, safe, and environmentally friendly high-speed train race. With the amount of traffic congestion between
