Question

Match Column X with Column Y:

Which one of the following combinations is correct?

• A. (P)-(IV), (Q)-(III), (R)-(V), (S)-(I), (T)-(II)
• B. (P)-(III), (Q)-(IV), (R)-(V), (S)-(I), (T)-(II)
• C. (P)-(IV), (Q)-(III), (R)-(II), (S)-(I), (T)-(V)
• D. (P)-(III), (Q)-(IV), (R)-(I), (S)-(V), (T)-(II)

Hint:

To match formulas with their respective applications, remember the core purpose of each method, like Horton for infiltration, Penman for evapotranspiration, and Chezy for flow velocity.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is A

Let's analyze the matching of each formula with its correct description: - (P) Horton equation: This equation is used to model infiltration, so it corresponds to (IV) Infiltration. - (Q) Penman method: This method is used for estimating evapotranspiration, so it corresponds to (III) Evapotranspiration.
- (R) Chezy’s formula: This formula is used to calculate the flow velocity in open channels, so it corresponds to (V) Flow velocity.
- (S) Lacey’s theory: This theory is used for the design of alluvial channels, so it corresponds to (I) Design of alluvial channel.
- (T) Dicken’s formula: This formula is used for calculating maximum flood discharge, so it corresponds to (II) Maximum flood discharge.
Thus, the correct combination is (A).
