It is easier to knock a man down when he is standing on one
leg than when he stands on two legs. Why ?

Answer Posted / sanju

When a man is standing on one leg he can be easily knocked
down being in unstable equilibrium- due to reason that the
base is narrow. But when he stands on two legs the
equilibrium becomes stable, because the base becomes broader.

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.
