Engineering | Science | Technology on Instagram: "A magnetic accelerator, often called a coilgun or linear motor, uses electricity and magnets to propel objects at high speed—without explosives or combustion. It works by creating a series of magnetic fields along a track. When a magnetic or conductive projectile enters each stage, the field pulls it forward, accelerating it faster and faster with precise timing. Engineers carefully control the current and sequence so the projectile gets maximum
