are living in vacuum?

altitudes atm pressure reduces,so a man at high altitude
will not be called in vacuum....

Answer / sudip bharati
vacuum is a negative pressure created by surrounding system
for their requirement, which is much or more less than the
atmospheric pressure. it is always measured with respect to
the surrounding atmospheric pressure either it is at hill
station or under the sea level.

Answer / renish
vacuum is always measured on sea/mercury level if atm
pressure is below some mmhg then its called vacuum

Answer / vaishtushar
Vacuum is space that is empty of matter.When the pressure exerting is much lesser than the atmospheric pressure then it is called vacuum.If it is slightly less than atmospheric pressure it is not called vacuum.fo ex at hill stationsthey are not living in vacuum.

In engineering economy, the future value of first year is FV = PV (1 i). For second year it is FV = PV (1 i) (1 i). For third year it is FV = PV (1 i) (1 i)(1 i) where FV = future value, PV = present value, i = interest rate per period, n = the number of compounding periods. By induction, what is the future value of $1000 for 5 years at the interest rate of 6%?
