Why dies a small quantity of air introduced into the top of
the barometer tube depress the level of mercury ?
Answer Posted / arun k s
The air introduced into the top of the barometer fills
evenly inside the barometer and excerts its pressure (which
further increases when the mercury colomn compresses the
air). Hence the inside mercury colomn get the assistance of
this air pressure to balance the outside atmospheric
pressure & the mercury level depresses.

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.
