Drop the barometer, timing its fall with a stopwatch. Then, use the physical formula（公式）to calculate the height of the building.” At this point, my colleague had to accept it, and then the student made almost full marks. I couldnt help asking the student what the other answers were. He listed many others, and then added, Probably the best is to take the barometer to the administrator and said to him, ‘Sir, here is a fine barometer. If you tell me the height of the building, I will give it to you.”, Then, I asked the student if he really did not know the conventional answer to this question.

The name of the student was Bohr who later was famous all over the world. He won the Nobel
