How can these capsules travel so fast? The answer is that there is no air inside the tube When airplanes fly, they have to move through the air The air slows the airplanes down Because there is no air in the ET3 tubes, the capsules are able to move at a very high speed Besides, the capsules are quite light They only weigh 183 kilograms It is exciting to think of how ET3 will change in the future Maybe someday, you will be able to have lunch in New York and dinner in Beijing Answer the questions: How long will it take to travel from New York to Beijing if you travel by ET3? What does ET3 stand for? What does ET3 use to make engine? How far does the most modern airplane usually fly in one hour? Why does ET3 can travel that fast? ❼ WRITING I Rewrite the sentences so that they have the same meaning as the original ones We will use renewable energy in the future Renewable energy This is our school This school is What is the distance between Vinh and Ha Noi city?
