L= NS^2/100{(√(2H)+√(2h))^2}; 100 comes as N is in terms of percentage so while putting in the formula it comes N/100.

L= NS^2÷(100(√2H+√h)^2). 100 comes because N is in percentage so while putting in the formula it becomes N/100.

The Value of N is not in %. it is written in the form of 100 i.e N by 100 @Uddipan.

Yes, it's not correct. It should be 2 not 200.

Shouldn't that be:

(NS^2)/100*(sq.rt(2h1)+sq rt(2h2))^2?

Ls = (NS^2)/(sq.rt(2h1)+sq rt(2h2))^2.

What is g?

I think the formula is not correct.

In place of angle of deviation N should be there and how 200 in denominator?

It's 2.
