Answer / sanju
The boiling point of water at the foot and at the top of the
mountain are determined by means of hypsometer, By
consulting vapour pressure tables, the atmospheric pressure
at the top and foot of the mountain can be determined ,
because the vapour pressure of a liquid at the boiling point
is equal to the atmospheric pressure. Then by applying the
rule(roughly) that the pressure decreases by one inch for
about a 900ft, rise above sea level and one inch mote for
the next 1000ft rise the height of the mountain can be
approximately determined.

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. Simply to say, I want to make the step-down without using tranceformer. Please, give me some ideas. And also I want the relation between Magnetic Induction & Weight of the body can be levitated. Or I can say, how much of magnetic induction requires to lift 500gms weight? I am heartily thankful to you.
