Q8. A conventional flow duration curve is a plot between

(A) Flow and percentage time flow is exceeded
(B) Duration of flooding and ground level elevation
(C) Duration of water supply in a city and proportion of area receiving supply exceeding
this duration
(D) Flow rate and duration of time taken to empty a reservoir at that flow rate

Q9. In reservoirs with an uncontrolled spillway, the peak of the plotted outflow hydrograph
(A) lies outside the plotted inflow hydrograph
(B) lies on the recession limb of the plotted inflow hydrograph
(C) lies on the peak of the inflow hydrograph
(D) is higher than the peak of the plotted inflow hydrograph

Q10. An isolated 3-h rainfall event on a small catchment produces a hydrograph peak and
point of inflection on the falling limb of the hydrograph at 7 hours and 8.5 hours
respectively, after the start of the rainfall. Assuming, no losses and no base flow
contribution, the time of concentration (in hours) for this catchment is approximately
(A) 8.5 (B) 7.0 (C) 6.5 (D) 5.5
Q11. The Muskingum model of routing a flood through a stream reach is expressed as ,
O2  K 0 I 2  K 1 I 1  K 2 I 1 where , K0 K1 and K2 are the routing coefficients for the concerned
reach, I1 and I2 are the inflows to the reach, and O1 and O2 are the outflows from the
reach corresponding to time steps 1 and 2 respectively. The sum of , K0 K1 and K2 of the
model is
(A) −1 (B) − 0.5 (C) 0.5 (D)1

Q12. Irrigation water is to be provided to a crop in a field to bring the moisture content of
the soil from the existing 18% to the field capacity of the soil at 28%. The effective root
zone of the crop is 70 cm. If the densities of the soil and water are 1.3 g/cm3 and 1.0
g/cm3 respectively, the depth of irrigation water (in mm) required for irrigating the crop
is ________

Q20. The intensity of irrigation for the Kharif season is 50% for an irrigation project with
culturable command area of 50,000 hectares. The duty for the Kharif season is 1000
hectare/cumec. Assuming transmission loss of 10%, the required discharge (in cumec,
up to two decimal places) at the head of the canal is ______

Q21. A culvert is designed for a flood frequency of 100 years and a useful life of 20 years.
The risk involved in the design of the culvert (in percentage, up to two decimal places) is
______

Q28. The probability that the annual maximum flood discharge will exceed 25000 m 3 /s, at
least once in next 5 years is found to be 0.25. The return period of this flood event (in
years, round off to 1 decimal place) is _______
