There are several modern uses of magnets.  Magnets allow high speed trains to ______________________ above the track.  They go faster because without touching the tracks there is no friction to slow them down.

• collide
• levitate
• attract
• repair

Are the magnetic field lines in the picture correct?

• Yes, because they point from north to south.
• No, because they point from north to south (they're supposed to go the other way).
• Yes, because the North pole is on the left in all pictures.
• No, because the North pole is on the left in all pictures (it's supposed to be on the right).
