For the experiment I used four strips of magnets, two pieces of wood for the train, two plastic rails, one strip of wood for the base, some cement glue, and a pencil. I created the track out of two of the four magnet strips and the two plastic rails. The strip of wood is the base I have put everything on. I then created the train out of the two pieces of wood and the remaining two magnet strips. I used the glue to stick everything together, and the pencil to make lines where everything would go. I attempted using electromagnets to create the train and tracks with no luck, that is why I reverted to the permanent (magnet strips) magnets. After creating the train and the tracks I tested to see how much the train levitated, if it did at all. The train levitated about a centimeter or so and glided along the track once pushed. All in all the experiment was a success but still a failure. The train did levitate, but not by the means I wanted it to. Bibliography: Word Count: 214
