When a glass cylinder is filled with water and a piece of
thick paper is placed at the mouth and the cylinder is
inverted, the paper dies not fall. Why ?

Answer Posted / muhammad zahid

it is not because of the pressure of paper dies . by
pouring some water into the cylinder , the amount of air
inside it decreases it means atmospheric pressure inside
the cylinder decreases. whereas the outer atmospheric
pressure remains the same and greater than the internal
pressure. due to this fact the paper dies stick with the
cylinder.

I just want to convert the voltage into current i.e. suppose I have 750V & 1A AC power then I want to convert it into 12V & 62A DC power only difficulty is that I don't want to use the tranceformer.
