Arrow represents the duration of activity not scale distance between events.

Mohit said:   1 decade ago
I think option A is also correct because in a network activity is denoted by an arrow.

Option 'E' can be an answer. Because dummy activity is an activity but which do not require any time frame or the duration is zero unit of time.

Debashis said:   8 years ago
Option E is the answer as dummy activity doesn't consume any time.

A bigger arrow would represent activity with larger duration, same goes for the smaller arrow, so how come D is correct?

@All.

Arrow doesn't represent the amount of duration. We don't treat it the way we treat vectors. It is the basic rule of network diagram.

Gaurav kumar said:   4 years ago
There is no significance of the length of the arrow in the project network.

It can be drawn from left to right or right to left.
