Hyperloop

Comprehension

  1. What is a hyperloop? How does it work?
  2. Hyperloop is a planned train that would be capable of travelling at incredible speeds. It's superfast because it's enclosed in a tube with no air, there will be no friction to slow the trai down.


  3. How is hyperloop more beneficial than the traditional trains?
  4. Hyperloop is much more beneficial and superior than any traditional or a high-speed. It's less expensive and uses less energy since the track doesn't have to provide electricity to the pods constantly and because the pods may depart every 30 seconds. It's more like a demansbased service.


  5. Does hyperloop have a successful history? How?
  6. Yes, it does have a successful history since the original concept for Hyperloop was to use Wagon in Victorian South London in 1864. Pnewmatic system has been used to transport mail and parcels between buildings which also brought the sign of development. The same technology has been used to move money either in the supermarkets or banks around the globe today. Therefore, it has a successful history.


  7. Write the contributions of Robert Goddard and Elon Musk for the development of Hyperloop.
  8. As early as the 20th century, Robert Goddard developed the "Vactrain" concept. This is certainly an origin to the hyperloop. Since then, there have been a significant number of similar ideas. Elon Musk, the creator of SpaceX and Tesla, came up with notion of the hyperloop in order to offer Ultra-fast intercity transportation. Travel cods enclosed within steel tubes will serve as faster transportation, which will be superior to any cars, planes, boats and trains. His 'Hyperloop Alpha' publication in August 2013 sparked tge concept of hyperloop.


  9. What relation does speed have with air resistance? Explain.
  10. More Air resistance decreases the speed of a moving body and vice versa. Since, Hyperloop will travel through the vaccum tubes, the speed wil drastically increase as the result of no-air resistance.


  11. How are hyperloop capsules compared with? How are they similar?
  12. Hyperloop capsules are compared to Boeing 747s because they both accelerate at the same rate of speed.


  13. How do the passengers feel while travelling via hyperloop? What will be done to make it luxurious?
  14. On a hyperloop, the passengers feel approximately the same as riding a lift or a passenger aircraft. The cabin shows beautiful scenery and each passenger has access to his or her own private amusement systems, to let them have an easy trip.


  15. Why does the writer doubt the success of hyperloop? What does success depend on?
  16. Hyperloop's success will be determined on the destinations, the local economy, and the geographical location. The author has concerns regarding hyperloop's viability because of the enormous multibillion-dollar expenditure and the fact that the projects are still in the pilot and experimental phrases. In the past, Nikola Tesla abd Elon Musk had already closed the same concept program, due to no response from government authorities.
