Q1           What's more dangerous: 10,000 volts at 1000 amps or 30,000volts at 
300 amps?

A1           JimReich Embedded systems engineer, sensor net and IoT expert 3y

Electricity doesn’twork that way.

You have to be either avoltage source with a current limit, or a current source 
with a voltage limit. Most of the time, it’ll be avoltage source.

Your body has someresistance to it. The current you’ll see specified somewhere 
is usually themaximum current a voltage source can provide, but the actual 
currentyou’ll see is voltage/resistance, which will be way less than what 
you’reproposing here. 

10kV is never going to put 1000 amps through you unless you’re made of copper, 
nor will 30kV put 300 amps through you.

But either 10kV or 30kV will kill you quite dead. It only takes a fraction of 
an amp to stop your heart, andthese voltages are enough to cook you pretty 
thoroughly and quickly.

Q2           Are Maharashtrians Aryans or Dravidians?

A2           SaketReddy B Tech from Indian Institute of Information Technology, 
Design and Manufacturing, Kancheepuram (IIITDM Kancheepuram) (Expected 2024)Wed

Ok, Let’s see the DNAresults.

Answer:All Indians from the North, South, East, and West are majority 
Dravidians (Baloch+South Indian ) and yes all of themhave some composition of 
Aryan Gene. (Caucasian+NE European )

The variation in AryanGenes in them makes them look a little different from 
other castes/regions.

So, All Indians are Primarily Dravidians with less andvarying composition of 
Aryan genes. (There are exceptions for a fewcastes in North West India and 
Tribals.)

Note: I didn’t sayabout North East Indians.So, please for god sake don’t fight 
for Aryan VsDravidians.

Racially:

Maharashtrians are majority Dravidians with some AryanGenes. (Just like many 
other Indians)

Linguistically:

They are Aryans asMarathi belongs to the Indo-Aryan Language family.

Some spaces here onQuora are unnecessarily posting Aryan Vs Dravidian stuff by 
posting Ram Vs Ravanasort of things.

My suggestion:

We are all Dravidiansprimarily with little Aryan genes.Yes, Aryans migrated to 
India as Dravidiansdid.

Sanskrit is not the mother of all European languages.

I’m not a left-winger.(Because according to you people the one who writes such 
things is a leftist.)

Q3           Why can't whales survive on land?

A3           ClaireJordan Degree in biology and folklore; programmer, shop 
owner, secretary on newspaper Wed

Too heavy. In water the water itself supports them, so they haven’t needed to 
develop a strong enough skeleton and musclesto support themselves in air. 
Therefore, if they beach, the larger species justsuffocate under their own 
weight.

They also dry out and get sunburned. You will see that when people rescue 
beached whales and dolphins they spray them withwater and cover them with wet 
cloths until they can re-float them.

I could see orcaseventually evolving back into an amphibious rather than fully 
acquatic species,though. They lunge out of the water to capture escaping prey 
and then have tothrash their way back, so if there was plenty of prey on the 
shoreline I couldsee them developing the ability to survive and hunt on land 
for several hours,as some fish and octopodes have done. This would probably 
mean becoming moreseal-like in shape.

Q4           How much money did the Bharat Ratna Award winner get?

A4           KanthaswamyBalasubramaniam LawyerJul 26 

Zilch. Nothing.

You get the Medal andthat’s it. The Medal has around 11.5 grams of Platinum 
plus Gold settingof 60 grams . So its value is around Rs. 3,10,000/-give or 
take.

Of course you can claimreimbursement for First Class Railway Fare or Airfare 
for reaching Delhi.But idon’t think anyone has ever claimed that.

Then thanks to Kshitijin the comments, They also get Free Business Class Air 
Travel from Air Indiafor their entire life.

Q5           What are the 10 most common problems faced by a NorthIndian going 
to South India and vice-versa?

A5           TitusD'silva Lives in Bengaluru, Karnataka, India Oct 15

There are no problemsin particular that a North Indian will face while living 
in South India. If youare not the type of person who feelsentitled to being 
served in a language of your choice then South India is justanother part of 
India. A little greener maybe. 

A little betterfor women, but still just another part of India.

Mr Divaker has painteda rosy picture of South India which is not true.

Cannot defecate,urinate, spit, bath at public, onlookers may ask not to 

Okay. This point is nottrue at all. There are many people who do this. It is 
actually very common. 

You will find many puddles on footpaths that reek ofurine. This is especially 
bad because over here people have toilets at home to relieve themselves. They 
are doing thisdespite having the option of using the toilet at home. And 
onlookers will definitely not interfere. It isan accepted practice. Once I even 
saw a man urinating just a few feetaway from where a homeless family was 
sleeping.

Police would stop traffic violators and either collectbribe or penalize for 
offence, they do not even consider if you are related toModi or Shah.

This is anotherexaggeration. This implies that everyone is a saint here. There 
is a lot ofcorruption in Bangalore like any place in India.

People are trustworthy,they wait for you if you promise something, usually, the 
general feeling is people are good, bad times make thembad. They wait for your 
good time, hence to see your goodness.

Just the day before yesterdaymy bicycle got stolen from my house by a 
professional thief (who came equippedwith bolt cutters). And I live in one of 
the safest and mundane neighbourhoodsof Bangalore.

People respect MoralRighteousness and Ethics more than Religion, Caste, Nation, 
Language, State andall isms.

People vote on the basis of caste in South India. As far as I know, the only 
exceptions are coastal Karnataka, parts ofTelangana and Kerala where people 
vote on the basis of religion which is notmuch better.

So no. No place in India is great. It is very easy to compare yourself with a 
person who as Americans would term it “lives intheir parent’s basement”. Why 
even bother comparing yourself with China, Brazilor Mexico when you can compare 
yourself with Indian equivalents of Pakistan?

Q6           How is the life of an IBPS clerk qualified candidate?

A6           NKKClerk (2020–present) Wed

Cleared IBPS 2019 gotinto BOI I have just completed 1 year at the bank. Though 
the job is good butexperience that I have had is horrible from the starting. To 
start with I gotposting 1200 kms from the hometown. 1200 kms with bare minimum 
medical facilities 😭

Can't get leaves easilybecoz here many banks have just 1 clerk so Imagine the 
stress these guys aregoing through can't even think about CL. Though it was 
hard to take CL I tookmany LOP so my probation got extended becoz of my health 
problems

Whoever says clerks get to leave at 5 I mostly leave by630 my PO after 7

People are obsessedwith passbook printing and it has become my nightmare 😂 So 
many people come tobank just for printing with 4 5 pbooks

I have lost track ofhow many accounts have I opened in the last 2 3 months I am 
still laggingbehind ACs keep coming with schools restarting

To tell you I'm stressed with overload of work ACS ATMs printing handling cash 
with no cash machine at my counter.

It's a good job withmany cons and average pay. I have learnt to handle stress

U learn to like it but-May be these things arebothering me a bit more because 
of this far-flung location I'm in

I just sometimes thinkwould I have different observations had I been at a 
different location

Who knows may be

Ps : I have finallydecided to call it quits

Serving my noticeperiod now.Banks need to consider this aspect of location 
also. It does getinto your head*Spare the grammar

My note- Where as manydream of a Bank job in south, look at the way, some think 
ofit in the North.

Q7          Why Indian H1B Visa holders are stillhoping for Green Card when 
there is more than 100 years waiting time forIndians?

A7        Balaji Viswanathan got MS and MBA degrees in the USA Tue

Green card queuesdon’t move in a linear fashion. In 2008, when we werefirst 
applying for a greencard the queue back then looked over 12 years for 
EB2category. I pulled out my application as I had no intention of staying, 
butmany just applied just in case.

Two years later, thequeue suddenly disappeared (due to the fallout of the 2008 
financial crisis)and all of my peers who applied in2007–08 got the green card. 
What was assumed to be a wait of 12 or more yearscame down to a fraction.

Such things can happen in thefuture too. Congress could pass a new act on 
immigration(they have done so many times in the past) that could drastically 
change thetime you need to get a green card. That is the hope that people have.

Q8         Is kiwi fruit good for you? Does ithave any health benefits?

A8        Lucia Garcia Worked at Hospitals Sep 11

The nutritional value of kiwi is far superior to other fruits. Kiwi is called 
the "King ofFruits" by many nutritionists. 

Kiwi fruit contains amino acids, vitamins, carotene, folic acid, 
calcium,phosphorus, iron, sodium, potassium, magnesium, selenium, zinc and 
otherminerals that the body needs.

A medium-sized kiwi fruit weighs about 70 grams, contains about 65 mg to70 mg 
of vitamin C, and its vitamin C content is 20 to 30 times that of applesand 
pears.

Kiwifruit is rich incalcium. The calcium content is 2.5 times that 
ofgrapefruit, 5 times that of bananas, and 18 times that of apples.

Kiwifruit contains morethan 17 kinds of amino acids such as leucine, 
phenylalanine,isoleucine, tyrosine, and alanine, which play an important role 
in health.

According to a research report of the United States Department ofAgriculture, 
the comprehensive antioxidant index of kiwifruit is among the bestamong fruits.

Eating kiwi fruitcan effectively scavenge free radicals, reduce the damage of 
free radicals to cells, strengthen the immune system, and delay the body's 
aging process.

Q9                    What is theIndian mom logic?

A9                     Sachin Jha 19 years old.Wed

One fine day, I asked mother if she could give me something sweet to eat.Her 
reply was a yes and she showed up with an Amla (Indian gooseberry).

 “But this isn't sweet.” I said.

She kept insisting it is and wanted me to give it a shot first. I keptdenying 
her request, I'd known it's taste and it's not pleasant in its farthestof 
possibilities.

Mother still didn't hesitate from constantly urging me to try it out.Well, I 
did.

Your sweet tooth makes you do things you wouldn't do for your lover.    “YOU 
MURDERED MY TASTEBUDS, MUMMY!”

I broke out after my first bite.She was holding a glass of water in herhand 
right from the beginning, which she handed to me now.

I drank and all of a sudden, the tartness inside my mouth turned intosweetness. 
It changed taste after my first sip.My mother looked at me changingexpressions 
with complete joy.“You played it well.”I told her.

 “Just never do it again.”This partwas silent.

Q12        What are the primary causes for waterwastage in India?

A12         2AnswersBalaji Balu, DGM at Qualcomm (2019-present) Answered 2hago

I haven't seen significant water wastage anywhere.

But The water available doesn't meet our needs even though we save 100percent 
water.

We have to find alternate ways to find good water.

2nd answerGopala Krishnan , former Assistant General Manager1996-2004 at 
Department of Telecom (1966-2004)Answered just now

During floods water flows to oceans from different rivers. Using dams wecan 
reserve only a percentage. Other way we maximum use of water.

All the above QA are based on Quora digest to me on 22-10-2021. Quoraanswers 
need not be 100% correct answers
