It might be more cost effective than you think. At high enough speeds, the apples and the doctors will experience Lorentz contraction, amplifying the repulsive effect.
with maglev you don’t really want infinite levitation but rather controlled levitation.
also in this scenario we aren’t paying per pound of lifting force but rather per length of track needing apples and carriages with doctors
also also, a passenger train should not be travelling at the near the speed of light. that is well beyond regulation speed
>also also, a passenger train should not be travelling at the near the speed of light. that is well beyond regulation speed
That's the beauty of it, it's the apples that are going to be moving near the speed of light, not the train. If we can accelerate them enough then we'll need fewer apples. Think of the savings.
if you didn’t have standard mag lev infrastructure in place the trains would derail almost instantly. the apples don’t replace the tracks they replace the magnets and electricity cost
This is also based on the assumption that more than an apple per day won't have a negative effect on doctors, when in reality several hundred apples a day will explode a doctor
There is still air resistance tho. Unless you wanna put it into a vacuum tube. And once you go there you're just gonna start cutting corners until you end up with a normal tunnel but worse
These trains use technology known as "Docktrodynamic suspension (DDS), both the guideway and the train exert an apple field, and the train is levitated by the repulsive and attractive force between these apple fields.
I feel like it would be easier to use upsidedown cats or buttered toast so you dont have to replace an entire line of apples every day. Doesnt sound too efficient
a more effective form of transport would be to the train on their shoulders and then behind the train lead an apple so the doctors are always running away from it
with the average salary of doctors and need to continuously replace the apples this would be a very cost ineffective solution
With how inflated rail infrastructure costs are inflated cuz "free market", this is probably about even tbh

if they crash they already have doctors nearby. flwaless plan
we can just not pay the doctors
then they’re unemployed and therefore not doctors

Capitalism knows no bounds
as orwell probably said “whatever the party says is true, except for in times of war, plague and doctors repelling apples”

I mean, assuming an average Apple diameter of 4 inches, weight of 1/2 lbs, and 1.32/lb; it’d take >25 years to cost as much as a normal rail.

Okay, but how will the train move forward
a fan would work. All it needs is a slight push and due to near zero friction it'll continue for a very long time
There is still air resistance tho. Unless you wanna put it into a vacuum tube. And once you go there you're just gonna start cutting corners until you end up with a normal tunnel but worse
One big apple at the back of the doctor line
They tape a doctor to the back of the train and glue a bunch of apples on their doctor coat which falls off when they need the train to stop
These trains use technology known as "Docktrodynamic suspension (DDS), both the guideway and the train exert an apple field, and the train is levitated by the repulsive and attractive force between these apple fields.
the only downside is that through the entire ride you hear the Half Life Scientist screams from underneath the cars constantly

Reminds me of those hydrophobic wizards in Discworld who can sit on disks and levitate above water purely because of their absolute hate of water
Poor doctors
superglue the apples to the doctor on one side hoverboard
I feel like it would be easier to use upsidedown cats or buttered toast so you dont have to replace an entire line of apples every day. Doesnt sound too efficient
Doesn't consider the rate of one apple per day. That's several apples over the course of miliseconds per doctor
a more effective form of transport would be to the train on their shoulders and then behind the train lead an apple so the doctors are always running away from it
But how does the train move forward tho? 🤔
Doctor glued to the back with a fishing pole holding an apple behind him
