4. HYPERLOOP is proposed by Elon Musk
who created PAYPAL,TESLA MOTORS &
SPACEX.
He proposed it as an alternative for costly
california High Speed Rail.
It is considered as the 5th mode of
transportation.
5. Howitworks……
Pods(capsules) float on
cushion of air through low-
pressure tube
Magnetic linear accelerators
to accelerate pods
Solar power to propel
capsules
An air compression fan is
provided in front of pod to
make air to flow to the bottom
of the capsule and it helps
the capsules to float in air.
7. ADVANTAGES
Speed. Speed is double than the high
speed rail. Maximum speed is 1300km/h.
Safety. It is more safer than trains since
pods are moving inside tube.
Maintenance. It is very much easy to
maintain.
Eco-friendly. Less energy is needed to
operate ,they are powered by solar energy.
Time. Travel time between cities will be
reduced very much.
8. DISADVANTAGES
Size of the capsule is very small.
If anything goes wrong, everybody
dies
Heat would destroy the
Hyperloop’s track
It is very much difficult to create a
Low pressure inside the tube.
