Why does it take a long time for water to drain from the bathtub when running water from the faucet. But when you run water from the shower head I have no problem?
More "VOLUME" flowing from the tub spout then the shower head as the shower head has a flow restrictor
Why does the tub faucet still leak when the shower head is turned on in a bathtub?
It doesn't but you better run sir/madam their may be a ghost in your bathroom.

What does it mean when kitchen sink drips when toilet is fllushed and shower is used?
It means that you should sell your home and move far away! No jk If its your faucet that is dripping I think in time your faucet needs repaired or replaced because if it drips only when you run water at another fixture (faucet) and doesn't drip if you have everything off then you have a strange faucet but its most likely caused by water hammer (sudden stop of water flow) and if you don't think its cause by that then it also could be from water pressure which when you turn on another faucet and the pressure drops a little and from the drop of pressure and it vibrates your seal in your faucet which could make it drip but very rare but possible.
Why would there be no hot water in a shower faucet that is not used very ofter?
If galvanized piping was uset to plum the house, it may have rusted shut, an easy fix would be to run a new line in copper or PEX from the water heater to the valve
Why does the water not come to the bathtub and shower faucets but the toilet and sink faucet don't have water problems?
it is run off of a different line from the main water supply. you may be able to trace it from the hot water tank and see where it branches off.
What are the advantages of using star connection?
The inrush current is reduced. This is the reason for star delta starters. Motor starts on star and after about 10 to 15 seconds, depending on the load of the motor, it switches to a delta configuration to run.
How do you get the air out of the line after installing new faucet?
Very simple. Run each faucet until there is no more air. This usually only takes a minute or two per faucet. Remember air is lighter than water and will quickly rise, thus exiting the faucet additionally the strong flow of water out of the faucet is a huge plus.
Why would there be great water pressure in an upstairs bath tub and almost no pressure in the adjacent shower when both use the same access pipe from the basement?
Remove the shower head on the shower and see if it is plugged. Run the water with the shower head off and see if the pressure is better. Depending on where you live there may be a water saving feature on the shower head (mandated by law) for water consevation. Low flow shower heads often have a restricter in them. Delta has a brass washer with a very tiny hole in it and Moen has a rubber plug with 3 small holes in it.
What can be done with the help of star and delta conversions?
Using star delta method of wiring you can run high rated motor with out any high starting current. Star connection can provide 3 phase power as well as single phase load
