Bullet trains operate as moving laboratories of engineering, and even something as simple as spraying water before they stop is the result of precise physics, aerodynamics, and safety considerations. As a train approaches a station at speeds above 300 kilometers per hour, it generates strong pressure waves in the air. The mist helps dissipate these waves, softening their impact and stabilizing airflow around the train as it slows down. On the mechanical side, braking from high speed produces int
