Electromagnetic guns use electrified coils to generate a magnetic field that acceleratesAdvertisement
There are three types of electromagnetic guns, gauss cannons, coil guns, and railguns and they all use the same principle: propelling a slug using a magnetic field. Gauss cannons and coil guns use a series of solenoids as the barrel, and when a magnetic projectile is in the barrel, the current passes through the selenoids, making them electromagnetic and the electromagnetism accelerates the projectile. Rail guns use a similar but distinct concept: they consist of two rails and a conductive projectile.
The key difference is Gauss cannons and coil guns current flows around the projectile, and in rail guns, the current flows down a rail and then through the projectile.Stay ahead with the latest science, technology and innovation news, for free:
