Electromagnetic Leviation Science Fair Projects

Electromagnetic levitation science fair projects not only are interesting but they are a lot of fun. These electronics science experiments will allow you to experiment with science fiction concepts and space aged technology like hover crafts. If you are looking for great 9th grade science fair projects that give you the freedom to use your imagination, then this is a topic for you.

Electromagnetic levitation can be used to develop mass transportation systems. This is an important hypothesis that numerous electromagnetic levitation science fair projects can be developed to test. You have several project options. One popular option is to build your own maglev train. Make this project your own by modifying the design to move faster, carry more people or to be safer.

Electromagnetic levitation can be used to move heavy object. This is another project option that you have for electromagnetic levitation science fair projects. To test this hypothesis you will need to first learn about how electromagnetic levitation works and then design electric circuit science fair projects that feature a levitation device. For example, you can develop an electromagnetic levitation device to help make transfering patients easier to do.

Furniture can also incorporate electromagnetic levitation technology into their designs. For this type of project you will want to think outside the box. Think the Jetsons. Try design a piece of furniture that is capable of moving, or that uses electromagnetic levitation to lift people up to reach objects. Have fun with this topic. If you come up with something interesting, you may not only win your science fair but also get an offer from a furniture manufacturer to buy your design.

Can electromagnetic levitation be used to design personal transportation units? To test this hypothesis you will need to think about ways that the technology used for maglev trains can be scaled down to facilitate indivual vehicles like cars. What would changes to the national infrastructure would need to be made to make individual maglev vehicles practical?

The final focus that your science fair project can have is recreational applications of electromagnetic levitation technology. To develop a project with this angle think about rides, games and sports equipment that can be developed using this technology. For example, is a hover board really possible? If yes how can it be made, if no why isn't it possible?
