CULTURAL QA 11 -2021-10
Being compilation there maybe errors Q1 Is it true that it's not good to eat a banana with anempty stomach? A1 Lucia Garcia Sun I believe that you can eat bananas on an empty stomach. Bananas arehigh-potassium and high-magnesium fruits. Many people think that bananas cannotbe eaten on an empty stomach because bananas contain a lot of magnesium andpotassium. If you eat bananas onan empty stomach, the magnesium and potassium levels in the blood will risesuddenly, leading to electrolyte disturbances in the body and negativelyaffecting the blood supply of the heart. A medium-sized bananaweighs 100 grams, contains 40 mg of magnesium and 350 mg of potassium. Generally, adults needto consume 330 mg of magnesium and 3,500 mg of potassium every day. Unless you eat 10 bananas on an empty stomach, you won'tconsume too much potassium and magnesium. Q2 Why do wives give all the details of their in-laws' houseto their parents? A2 BhuvanaRameshwarmarried for three decades 9h It is a stress reliever, stress buster as most inlaws houses are new to brides. Some feel lost even after ten years. It takes years to realize speaking all these to parents will only increase their worry in the initial years and in lateryears lead to gossip and sometimes can be used as a trump card agaisnt us byour own maternal home. Our self respect is inspeaking less about our inlaws houses unless it is something very serious likephysical, mental abuse, dowry demand or husband having an affair. So young, new bridesspeaking to mother, sisters aunts or close friends, like reporting everyday activities, everything through phones calls or chats is only To relieve stress To feel happy atleastthere is someone to hear them out as there is no one to hear their woes in thenew house. Sometimes husbands are not comfortable to hear any complaints. To discuss how to dealwith new problems faced by them in laws’ house as their mother is moreexperienced in life In the new house theyfeel lost. The phone call makes them feel happy and connected. Sometimes theyeven report silly things like “here they don't make upma with ghee or mil takesbath very late or sil is always with the smart phone, or fil brings home guestsfor lunch without informing “. It gives them mentalstrength to face the new house and people everyday. But with maturity they soon realize this is unnecessaryand sometimes harmful . Parents of brides also should notmicro - manage or remote control girls once married. Leave them to learn themselvesfor inlaws are also humans. Q3 I've heard that Americans don't have house maids andservants. How do the rich people in America work then? Do they also mop theirfloors? Do they themselves clean their homes on their own? Do they havepersonal drivers? A3 AmyChrista Ernano American all my life Nov 1 Most wealthy people Iknow (and I live in a very wealthy part of the U.S., even if I myself am notwealthy) who live in large houses have a cleaning person come to thoroughly clean their homes periodically,usually once a week or every two weeks. (Around here, most of thelocal cleaning ladies are Polish immigrants.) Day to day small cleaning, mostpeople I know do themselves, even if they are wealthy, and I don't know anyonewith live-in “servants” (I hate that word. It's extremely antiquated.) I don't know a single person, however wealthy, with apersonal chauffeur or driver. My former boss was exceptionally wealthy— he owned a very lucrative information company, and his wife was a well-known dermatologist.They lived in a palatial apartment on the Upper East Side of Manhattan, andboth walked or took the subway everywhere, although they did own a car (whichthey spent $800 a month just to garage). Another friend is worth about $15million and has no full-time maid or housekeeper, no driver, and does all hisown shopping and errands. I think you usuallyhave to get into billionaire territory before you really see live-in help, andwhile I know a number of multimillionaires, I don't know any billionaires.

Q5 Why does rain not affect/seem to not affect overhead powerlines? If it does, how so? A5 Robert Harvey Sat Because after at least130 years of implimentation the providers know a thing or two . Engineers arenot stupid Firstly, they get wet. This accelerates corrosion, so a lot of materials science has gone into designing the wire and thesuspension points to avoid dissimilar metal contact, and to avoid stress pointfailures. Even so, they may have to be replaced every 40 years or so. Secondly, they obviously have to be insulated electrically. The insulators are designed like a series of cups, orpagoda roofs, all in a string. This has two purposes: to lengthen the surfacecreep path a lot, reducing the inevitable electrical leakage; and to produceoverhangs which stay dry underneath, breaking the continuity of any water film.Rain rarely falls upwards. In fact, you can hear the second mechanism fail. On foggy days thewhole surface of the insulator can become wet because of condensation.This causes a continuous water film, and a lot more leakage than normal, andthere is crackling, and a sort of 'singing’ tone you can hear from groundlevel. In fog, the protection is reduced to just the lengthy convoluted creepdistance, and the heating effect the leakage current path experiences. Fog is worse than rain. The insulators are designed with a surface that is as chemically inert as possible, and very smooth. So when they get dirty,as inevitably happens, the rain will wash the contaminants off. You can see theinsulators quite clearly here: Q6 Why does AC maintenance cost matter? A6 Gopala Krishnan , former AssistantGeneral Manager 1996-2004 at Department of Telecom (1966-2004) Answered justnow Expertise required. Working on lofts in risky areas. Scarcity of spares. Mostly problems are complicated risky ones. Q7 If you could eat onlyone vegetable, one fruit, one type of grain, and only one liquid food all yourlife, which would you choose and why?

A9 PaulMontgomery Retired electrical engineer.Founder-industral controls Co.Updated Oct 31 Industrial quality motors larger than 5 hp are routinelyrewound and rebuilt. Electric motor andtransformer rewind shops are pretty common near industries that use thesemotors. They range from small garage shops to international companies. There are motors firstbuilt in the 1920 that come back to rewind shops to be reused and are on theirfourth or fifth rebuild. The rebuilt motor is actually better than the originalbecause of improvements in materials and techniques. Castings from back thenwere very robust and quality. I used to do a lot ofbusiness with them as they have a lot of instrumentation. My note- Rewinding cost much lesser comparing to purchasing new motor. Q10 Is it okay to eat mango at night? A10 LuciaGarciaOct 23 Mango is a very populartropical fruit, known as the "Tropical Fruit King", and its nutritionalvalue is very high. Mango is rich indietary fiber.
