Q1 Will Queen Elizabeth II frequently visit Prince Philip's grave?
A1 ChrisSmith May 19
He doesn’t have a‘grave’.
He is in the vaultunder St George’s Chapel where he will remain until she dies
and they will belaid to rest together in the George VI Memorial Chapel in St
George’s Chapel.
If she wants to visitthe vault she can do so.
If she wants to go toSt George’s Chapel and pray she can do so but she usually
attends a moreprivate service in the private chapel in Windsor Castle, which
was redesignedduring the restoration after the 1992 fire.
She may not feel a needto visit a coffin to feel close to him. He will be
around her at Windsor whichwas their ‘home’ in many ways so she will have
memories of him everywhere shegoes at that home.

Q3 What are advantages and disadvantages of installing tileson an
open terrace? Does it help in waterproofing it?
A3 DineshVyas, Empowering Construction professionals as Techno-Mktg
Pro.Updated December 29, 2020
There is absolutely nodisadvantage unless you can do without it and look at
opportunity costelsewhere for higher returns by investing the saved money!
Coming to theadvantages…
It will make yourterrace worth visiting and spending sometimenin the open.
Imaging few minutesor an hour during morning or evening.
One it is tiled, itwill be easy to maintained. You can have some container
planters. In fact, withas little as 200 sq.ft. area, you can grow leafy and
other vegetables too!
The beautiful terracewith some greenry will add fun and freshness in your life…
if there issufficient Sun light, try some solar panels and use the generated
power inlighting your home.
Now coming to waterproofing.
Do water proofing ofthe terrace before the tiling. As you do tiling, you will
maintain the rightslope as per the drainage plan and that will ensure that
water runs offquickly, no accumulation on terrace (main cause of leaking
roofs)…so in way,tiling post water proofing will make your waterproofing stable
and long term.
Enjoy your terrace. DidI tell you there are now special tiles for terrace
particularly if you are inIndia and face hot summers? One such option is
Johnson's COOL-ROOF tiles in itsEndura collection. These are high SRI (Solar
Reflectice Index), porcelain tileswhich do not allow the roof to get too much
heated during peak summer days;this results into much cool ambiance below the
roof.
Q4 Do dogs actually care for humans, or do they get attachedbecause
they see us as their providers?
A4 MorganJones Follow MS from Midwest, United States
(Graduated2007)September 2
My daughter begged fora dog for about 2 years. We finally got Norman from a
rescue shelter. Of coursehe showed unconditional love and patience with our
daughter who was 9 at thetime. As years went by, he became a solid listener
when she struggled at schoolor when any of the rest of us had hard times.
Around two years ago,on what should have been his adoption birthday, our
daughter fell ill and hadto be rushed to the hospital. Norman had to stay with
the neighbors. After ninedays, our daughter died. My wife and I came home. The
neighbors had droppedNorman off to be there for us. He greeted us at the door
from the garage, thenpaused looking for our daughter. We told him that she was
gone. He then went toher room and scoured the rest of the house looking for her.
Most nights he sleepson her bed. Some of her stuffed animals are still there
and he has neverbothered them. He can tell when I am more emotional. Especially
in the firstdays and weeks that followed her death. On walks, he would insist
on going alittle further, which was helpful to me.
Yes, his bond is morethan just looking for some kibble.
Q5 Are we allowed tokeep Panchaloha Vigrahas at home?
A5 Rami Sivan Priest, Dharma teacher, counsellor, Gov.Advisor
(1998–present)September 6
Panchaloha vigrahas oricons made from five metals are the most desirable for
worship both in thetemple and at home.
The best ones are thosemade specifically and individually for you and not
purchased commercially. Thecentre for such manufacture by order is at Pallani
in South India where all theicons are made by the lost wax method so none can
ever be exactly duplicatedfrom a mould.
Q6 Why is only sine wave used for representing the ACcurrents? Why
should we not use square or triangle wave?
A6 GopalaKrishnan, former Assistant General Manager 1996-2004
atDepartment of Telecom (1966-2004)Answered just now
Because the energy molecules travel in Sine Wave form
Q7 Are all electrical cables the same?
A7 TomCosby, former Electronics Service Answered 26m ago
Of Course NOT NO, theyare different depending on what the specific purpose it
is serving. They allcarry electrical energy.
Q8 How does air conditioning remove heat from a building?
A8 2 AnswersDavid Brann, Retired locomotive diesel engine engineer
Updated21h ago
By utilizing the Zeroth Law of Thermodynamics: “Heat flows from
highertemperature to lower temprerature regions.” The condensing unit outside
thebuilding compresses the working fluid (usually some type of Freon, though
inindustrial applications ammonia is sometimes used) which heats it up above
theambient temperature. It passes through a cooling coil, where it
condenses,still at high pressure, and dumps its heat load to the atmosphere.
Then, insidethe building the fluid passes through an orifice to a lower
pressure, and evaporates.This drops the temperature to below that of the air in
the building, so as itpasses through a cooling coil it picks up heat from the
building. Thence, backto the condensing unit to start the process all over
again.
It’s all driven by the compressor in the condensing unit.
2nd answer- Thayer Ward, HVAC TechnicianAnswered Fri
The compressorcompresses high heat content, low pressure vapor into high heat
content, highpressure vapor. Since temperature follows pressure, the
temperature is raised.It is raised to approximately 20° warmer than the outside
temperature. Thedischarged vapor flows to the condenser, the outside coil. A
fan runs acrossthe condenser coil, removing the vapor heat content and
expelling it outside,causing the vapor to condense into liquid. The low heat
content, high pressureliquid moves to the metering device.
The metering devicemeters the liquid, allowing a certain amount through,
creating a pressure dropon the outlet. The liquid flashes into a high liquid,
low vapor mixture anddrops pressure dramatically, without removing any more
heat content, and withthe pressure drop comes a temperature drop, down to
approximately 30–35° lowerthan the inside temperature. The low heat content,
low pressure liquid/vapormixture enters the evaporator. A fan blows inside air
across the evaporator,adding heat content to the liquid/vapor mixture, boiling
the liquid into vapor.The high heat content, low pressure vapor moves to the
compressor, and theprocess starts again.
Ammonia is NOT an ACrefrigerant. AC refers to comfort cooling, cooling normally
occupied spaces.Ammonia is strictly refrigeration, and is used primarily in
large agriculturalstorage buildings and large farms, where an entire storage
facility needs to becooled.
Freon is a coupledifferent types of refrigerant, specifically made by DuPont.
It is not acorrect term for refrigerant.
Q9 How can an electric current be conducted?
A9 RitwikSunny, former Customer Support Executive at Ashok Leyland
Answered1h ago
In conductors orsemiconductors, electric current is conducted by the tiny
particles. These tinyparticles are known as electric charge carriers. The
electric charge carrierscould be electrons, holes, protons, ions etc. However,
the electric current isoften conducted by electrons and holes.
Q10 Which is the best steel for house construction?

10 Best Steel Brand forHouse Construction in India
JSW Steel Ltd. Tata Steel. SAIL. ESSAR Steel Ltd. Jindal Steeland
Power Ltd. VISA Steel. SRMB Steel. Electro Steel.
2ND ANSWER- Vishnu S Nair Answered September 29,2020
Steel is basically analloy of iron and carbon with a small percentage of other
metals such asnickel, chromium, aluminium, cobalt, molybdenum, tungsten etc.
Steel is a hardductile and malleable solid and is probably the most solid
material afterplastic.
One of the best steelcompany in India is JSW Steel. The company is a leading
integrated steelmanufacturer. and offers No 1 Steel In India. SW is also the
first company tomanufacture high-strength and advanced high-end steel products
for itsautomotive segments.
