Answer» CORRECT answer is (B) Eddy currents Best explanation: A strong MAGNETIC field is applied to the rotating DRUM ATTACHED to the wheel. The eddy currents set up in the drum exert a torque on the drum to stop the train. That is the reason eddy currents are set up in the drum of the train wheel. |
