2. Futuristic 'HYPERLOOP'
Closer to Reality

3. INTRODUCTION
 A futuristic transportation concept known
as the "Hyperloop" underwent the first
public test on May11,2016
 An important milestone- pioneering
system first envisioned by SpaceX and
Tesla founder ‘Elon Musk’.
 A startup Hyperloop One (Hyperloop
Technologies)-conducting a test of the
Hyperloop system's electric motor in the
Nevada desert, running speeds of up to
300 mph (483 km/h), the company said.

4.  Actual Hyperloop transportation system,
which was proposed by Musk in 2013.
 The concept would see people zoom
between Los Angeles and San
Francisco(559kms) in only 30 minutes,
sitting inside pods that speed through low-
pressure tubes at roughly 760 mph (1,220
km/h).

5. DESIGN

6. WORKING PRINCIPLE

7.  The train pods racing back and forth
through a huge low-pressure tube.
 The tube doesn’t have rails; the train
moves by way of a magnetic levitation
system.
 As the train is being propelled by
magnets, you only need to give it speed
when it departs.” So you don’t need an
engine. “At its end station you slow down
the train and the energy can then be
reused,” “Besides, the energy would be
generated by solar panels on top of the
tube,
 As there is hardly any air inside the tube,
the train encounters practically no

8.  The Hyperloop would accelerate pods -
each about 6.5 feet (2 meters) wide -
through a low-pressure tube from Point A to
Point B. These pods would ride not on rails
or wheels but rather a cushion of air, greatly
reducing the friction of the system.
 The pods would be revved up to near-
supersonic speeds by linear electric motors
like those used by Tesla. But the ultimate
source of energy for the system would be
the sun.

9.  An alternative to California's proposed $70
billion high-speed rail system, which he
regards as too expensive, inefficient and
slow.
 A Los Angeles-San Francisco Hyperloop
line could be built for about $6 billion and
deliver a much better travel experience to
passengers
 Tickets would be much cheaper than seats
aboard a train or airplane, for example, and
crashes would be extremely rare. "It's not
like it's going to fall out of the sky, nor can it
.

10. Facts
 Hyperloop One also announced that it had
received $80 million in financing, from current
and new investors, to develop the
transportation system.
 In 2015, Musk signed a deal-central
California landowners to build a 5-mile (8 km)
test track - California Interstate 5.
 Needless energy is wasted on air
resistance. Take away that resistance,
transportation will become much more
efficient and faster(to go back and forth at
incredible speed, up to around 1,200 kms an
hour).
 Transportation will also become cheaper,
because less energy is used(energy as 2 ltrs
of petrol or twenty per cent of the battery of a
Tesla car).
