Solution

The correct option is C Zero
A maglev (magnetic levitation) train does not have any wheels, because it works on the principle of magnetism. The bottom part of the train contains a series of magnets that attract and repel their counterparts present on the tracks. This force gives the necessary levitation and pull for the train to accelerate.
