3. The are four existing conventional modes of Transportation.They are
rail,road,air,and water.These modes of transport tend to be either relatively
slow (e.g., road and water),expensive (e.g.,air),or a combination of relatively
slow and expensive (i.e.,rail).Hyperloop is a new mode of transport that seeks
to change this paradigm by being both fast and inexpensive for people and
goods .
It is fifth mode of transportation.The energy required to run this system will be
supplied by itself which will be produced by solar panels affixed to upper part of
tube.
Hyperloop consists of a low pressure tube with capsules that are transported at
both low and high speed throughout the length of the tube.The capsules are
accelerated via a magnetic linear accelerator affixed at various station on the
low pressure tube with rotors contained in each capsule.

12. In 1812 the British mechanical engineer and inventor George
Medhurst wrote a book detailing his idea of transporting
passengers and goods through air-tight tubes using air
propulsion.
The Crystal Palace pneumatic railway operated around 1864
and used large fans, some 22 feet (6.7 m) in diameter, that were
powered by a steam engine. The tunnels are now lost but the
line operated successfully for over a year.
