Mercury is commonly known as mercury element, is a dense, silver-white, liquid at room temperature transition metal. 

     In daily life, we often see Mercury products, such as thermometers, barometers, sphygmomanometers, floating valves, mercury switches and so on. Recently, some bloggers said that the driving force of the hot Maglev train in recent years came from Mercury. To this, the majority of netizens are skeptical. What on Earth is going on? 

    The Maglev train uses liquid helium to cool the mercury into a superconducting state, causing a suspension effect that then forces the Maglev train to keep going. This means that the mercury is giving the Maglev train a magnetic levitation effect, not a power source, and that the Maglev train is powered by a linear motor.

       The Maglev train is a modern high-tech rail vehicle that uses electromagnetic force to levitate and guide the train from track to track without contact. In recent years, countries around the world have been scrambling to conquer Maglev train technology, with China leading the way. In 2019, the 600kph high-speed Maglev train rolled off the line in Qingdao, Shandong province, in September of the same year, the “Power heart” long stator linear motor and electromagnet with a speed of 600km Maglev train successfully rolled off the production line at CRRC Zhuzhou Motor Co. , Ltd. , in July 2020, the 600-km-per-hour high-speed Maglev train made a successful test run on the Shanghai Tongji University Maglev Test Line. ...
