After the defeat of china by Japan in a war over Korea in 1894,France, Russia, Britain and Germany gave loan to china to help it to the payment of 150 million dollors demanded by japan. These western countries the divided china into spheres of influence, which meant that each country had certain regions of china reserved exclusively for its purposes.

          The united states feared that china would be completely parcelled out in exclusive 'spheres of influence' and that its trade with china would be shut off. The USA, therefore, suggested the policy known as the "Open Door". This policy is also described as "Mee too Policy".

India switched from the rupee, pie system to decimal currency on 1 April 1957. The decimalisation of currencies is the process of converting each country's currency from its previous non-decimal denominations to a decimal system, with one basic unit of currency and one or more sub-units, such that the number of sub-units in one basic unit is a power of 10, most commonly 100).

In India, Pakistan, and other places where a system of 1 rupee = 16 annas = 64 paise = 192 pies was used, the decimalisation process defines 1 naya paisa = ​1⁄100 rupee.

"Pressure" is the ratio of mass to area. So, for any given area, the one with more mass pressing on it will experience a higher pressure.

As you go more deeply into the atmosphere OR earth itself, you are putting more and more mass over you. For the same unit area therefore, the pressure, (mass/area) increases.

Hence, the lowest layer will always have the highest pressure i.e, inner core.
