Q1 Willit help in faster cooling if we run an exhaust fan in a hot room beforestarting an air conditioner? A1 Chetan Vaze , MechanicalEngineering Automotive Industry & Heating, Ventilation, and AirConditioning (1997)Answered 19h ago Yes. It would help in reducing the heat load tomuch extent. Same as when the car is parked in sun, we usually open the carwindows for a few minutes while starting the journey. My note- A doubt- Whether we provide exhaust fanin bed rooms, halls? Q2 Whattime do you go to bed and wake up? A2 Ray Schilling Blogger, retiredphysician and cancer researcher. (2010–present)Apr 12 The best time to fall asleep is between 10 and11PM, because this fits into the diurnal hormone rhythm.Sleep for 7 to 8 hours every night. Sleeping less shortens your telomeres andtranslates into a shorter life expectancy. Sleeping longer also shortens yourtelomeres: Ray Schilling's answer to What is one thing that I could do everyday to slow the aging process? Q3 Whyaren't engineering graduates getting much paid? A3 D D Rishi Former IRS | Advocate | LL. M.,Ph.D. (Law)| Apr 23 Not onlyengineering graduates but also law graduates, science graduates, commercegraduates, history graduates, archeology graduates etc are all also not gettingmuch paid. The reasonis that the market needs skills to help it generate more money. Itis not bothered about your educational degrees. If you are a class 10 pass witha diploma in engineering but know how to handle machines, an employer will bewilling to pay you more than what he would bother to pay to even apost-graduate or a doctorate in engineering who can't make the factory machinesrun. The education given in our colleges or othereducational institutions does not seem to have any practical utility in actualworking conditions. Therefore, one needs to havepractical knowledge to get paid decently. My note- Not exactly correct. Those studying inIIT’s get study tours and even during studyselected by companies in campus selection. Q4 Whydoesn't the Kaalahasti temple have Malayalam signboards? Why must theSabarimala temple have Telugu signs hereafter if we remove it? A4 Atheeth V Lives in South Indian(2021–present)Updated 1h Hey.. Well I answerit in a nutshell tbh. Kaalahasti templedoesn’t have Malayalam signboards because the number of Visitors or Pilgrimagefrom Kerala to there is comparatively less. So there wouldn’t be the need ofthat. And again mostMalayalis know some sort of Telegu, Hindi, English or Tamil. But on the other handSabarimala temple is visited by a large number of Telegu, Tamil, Andhra people.So there definitely we need these respective language’s. And most of them won’tbe able to read or speak Malayalam unfortunately. Swamiye SaranamAyyappa Edit; Sorry to useTelegu and it seems many are offended by that. And thank you to bring Teluguinto notice. Also I believe thatIndia is one of the most diverse country with 1000s of languages (official andunofficial) many religions, castes, sub castes, communities and whole lot ofthings! At the time of independence everyone thought this country would justbreak apart. But we proved that wrong during Indo-Sino war of 1962, Indo-Pakwar (1971,1999) and in every tough times all of us Bharatiyans stood togetherand overcame this situation. So please let you be a South Indian, or NorthIndian, from Kerala or Andhra Pradesh, speak Tamil or Malayalam or anything, weall are from the mother land of Hindustan. Let’s not let some languages andother cultural differences cause hatred on each other Q5 If Ihave to use a public toilet, where would the cleanest one most likely be, i.e.,in a fast food restaurant, gas station, supermarket, etc.? A5 Chris Harper Biologist,Astrophysicist and all around seeker. Apr 19 Best place to go isa hotel. I’m not kidding. Some of the cleanest bathrooms are in hotelsespecially on the floors where they have functions. And the best part is mosthotels don’t care if you actually have any business there or not. You walk in, check out therestaurant, wander around a bit, head to the floor with the functions and findthe washroom.Half the time they’re empty but clean.

Q7 Why dohorses never lie down or sit on the ground to sleep? A7 Kathryn Berck Alpha to mustang,Arab, AkhalTeke, and their wise-ass childTue All horses lie down to sleep for as much as anhour at a time, but only as long as there are other horses around keeping watch.A group of horses will take turns: a few sleep while others watch, then theytrade off. The rest of the time they doze while standing, but they need thedeeper sleep too. A lone horse might not be able to sleep properly - anothergreat excuse for having a few more horses than one actually needs. Q8 Howmuch power does an air conditioner consume when the door connecting the roomthat has AC, to another room (without AC), is kept open? A8 Devendar Singh, HVAC SalesEngineer (2014-present)Answered May 26, 2019 First Take a Case that door is closed. Power consumptionof 1.5 TR Split AC - 1500 Watts, You can check this power consumption of yoursAC Model on BEE sticker pasted on Indoor unit. Now consider yourAC running time is 8 Hrs Daily. Total unitsconsumed - 1500 Watts or 1.5 kw multiply by 8 Hrs = 1.5 Kw * 8 Hrs =12 kwh This is the totalamount of units AC going to consume but compressor of the AC is not going torun 8 hrs daily, its going to shut down after desired temperature isapproached. Consideringcompressor going to run 70% only then total units become = 70% *12 kwh = 8.4Kwh Total unitsconsumed = 8.4 KWH Now you canmultiply this factor by price per unit in your area. I am Living inPunjab, where Electricity costs Rs 8 / Unit Than total amountgoing to be =Rs 8 * 8.4 kwh = Rs 67.2/- for running AC 8 Hrs Daily. SECOND CASE - When Door is open In this casedesired temperature not going to achieve as all cooling going to loss in secondroom, So compressor not going to cut off and will run on full speed throughout. You can take 12 kwh units consumption in that case. Q9 Doeskeeping the windows open increase an air conditioner’s power consumption evenwhen it’s set to a fixed setting? A9 Vivek Choubey (विवेक चौबे), B.Tech ElectricalEngineering, Narula Institute of Technology (2018) Answered Mar 17, 2019 An air conditionercontroller is a simple feedback controller. You set a temperature through yourremote now the controller within the air conditioner compares the differencebetween your set temperature and the room temperature (measured throughthermostat, a temperature sensor). The controller aim is to reduce this difference to zeroso that the room temperature equals the set temperature. So based onthis difference, it controls the speed of the fan and compressor. Now if you set your AC at a temperature and keepwindows open, the difference never goes to zerobut remains almost constant because the window is open and surrounding area ismuch larger than your room. Also surrounding temperature is high and hence thecontroller will find the temperature to be constantly high. As a result, itwill drive the compressor and fans at high speed to reach the set point(assuming set point to be lower than the surrounding temperature). As a result,these components will draw huge power and result in power loss. Infact, it candamage the compressor as well. Q10 What isa "knacker" in the UK? It was used as a noun. A10 Claire JordanDegree in biology andfolklore; programmer, shop owner, secretary on newspaper Apr 24 Originally, a knacker was a slaughtermanwho put down worn out horses and other largeanimals not intended for human consumption, and then turned the carcases intoglue and pet food. To be knackered, as an adjective, is to be so tired that ifyou were a horse they might have to shoot you, or - when said of machinery - tobe broken down and probably beyond repair. “Knackers”, plural,and the variant “nadgers”, is slang for testicles.
