1.90 meters is the standard, but from experience that will be quite low as some shower head droops down to -2" or -3" from the pipe.

Answer

If you have an especially tall person in the house, you may want to adjust it to a higher height.

Yes, all types of paint come in spray cans.

The local building code should be checked because there is probably a minimum required height. Some shop ceilings will be higher than the minimum to make the room feel more spacious. It could possibly be 9'-0"min, 10'-0" or more.

More important is, that both paints are of the same kind (like: oil-based paint, acrylic paint, latex paint). Semi-gloss is more easily painted over then high gloss, but first better find out what the old paint layer is made of. Check with the help of alcohol - if paint comes off in any way when you rub it with a cloth of alcohol, it's latex or acrylic paint (and can be painted over with acrylics).

To hang light weight items such as a poster, Sticky Tac is an excellent removable, and reusable adhesive that won't harm the paint. Stores do sell several versions of this adhesive in different brands. It's generally white, is a form of 'putty', and comes packaged in sections of small squares or lengths.

No. There is no atmosphere in outer space. So there would be less resistance to slow the ball down.

Not so. There is no resistance in space, it is a vacuum. It would go on forever unless acted upon by an outside force, such as the gravitational pull of another object. Simple Newtonian physics.

The standard size of a shower curtain is 70 inches wide by 72 inches high. Assume that the shower curtain will hang approximately 1-1/2 inches below the center of the rod and that you would like the curtain to hang 3 inches above the floor. Then the rod should be mounted with its center at 76-1/2 inches above the floor.

Answer

The primary consideration when hanging a shower curtain is to keep the water in the shower. If you have a shower tub, you want to make sure the curtain can fit inside the tub without folding over at the bottom. The only exception to the above measurements would be if the shower tub is raised off of the floor. You would then need to make adjustments accordingly.

Depending upon the method which the mirror is being hung determines the necessary height. If the mirror is being suspended by a frame a particular point of balance is needed. Overall the center of the mirror needs to be 4-5 feet high.

There is no average height for a fencer. Although, people who fence epee are generally tall.

The standard height of a kitchen counter according to most architectural and building codes is 36 inches. However, the ADA describes a maximum of 34 inches tall for wheelchair bound access.

Anthropometrics literally means man (anthro) measurements (metric). It is the measurement of the size and proportions of the human body, as well as parameters such as reach and visual range capabilities. Anthropometrics enables us to properly size items, including system interfaces, to the "fit" the user.

It's basically when certain trends and social/political happenings influence the work of artists living in that period. Examples of design movements are Bauhaus, Modernism, and the Intelligent Design Movement.

Antoni Gaudi was a Spanish architect, born on 25th of June 1852 (Original name according to Wikipedia: Antoni Placid Guillem Gaudi i Cornet). His parents were Francesc Gaudí Serra and Antònia Cornet Bertran, and they both came from coppersmith families. He became famous for his unique and highly individualistic designs regarded as beyond the scope of Modernism. Gaudi's first work of architecture was based on gothic architecture and traditional Catalan architecture. Most of his works were affected by nature, due to his early times spent in nature. Antoni Gaudi died on the 10th of June 1926 (Aged 73).

The effects of colour on people is a huge study, and for those interested there are dozens of books and chapters in books to read and educate yourself with. Your local library will have lots to choose from.

However, there are some basics that are widely accepted. Dark colours tend to make areas appear smaller, have a more dramatic effect and can add punch to decorating style. Light colours, tend to brighten an area, making it appear more open and roomy. Warm colours can make a cold and/dark room feel snug and warm and cool colours can make a hot or dark/stuffy room feel cooler and more airy. Monochromatic colour palettes (variations on a single colour) are often used as backdrops to showcase art work pieces or enhance a dramatic view. (as in a loft apartment with a view of a river or noteworthy land-mark). Trendy colours palettes can be found in most decorating books and magazines and all paint stores.

But remember... Colour trends come and go on just about a ten year cycle... (everyone remembers or can identify, the green and orange or browns and rusts of the sixties or the grey and raspberry of the eighties), the most important part of choosing colour is do you like it? Does it make you feel comfortable?

Yes colour is a great way to alter a room, if you aren't sure, start by painting the walls, a can of paint is a lot cheaper and easier to get rid of than an eggplant sofa... Myley Cyrus' room color is blue

Wherever its comfortable for you. You don't want to be bending or reaching up for it. It should be located at a height that is comfortable and ergonomic for you.

Standard heights are ridiculous nonsense. Why would anyone build something to conform to someone else's physical dimensions? You want your house to fit YOU not the potential buyer fifteen or twentyfive years from now.

Imagine working at a countertop that is either too tall or way too short for your physical stature?.......talk about back problems. Same thing with furniture heights, chairs, tables, sinks, ect. Fit them to your height and forget about the rest of the world.

You must discover what they are interested in and attracted to.

No, it actually adds value especially if your bricks are outdated but it has to be done properly. It is not recommended to paint straight over bricks as that would look horrible and definitely would devalue your home. You must apply a concrete render over the bricks first then paint them.
