35.
The reduced levels of points, 30 metres apart along the longitudinal section of a road portion between chainages 5 and 9 are shown in the given figure. If there is a uniform up-gradient of the road 120 in 1, the chainage of the point with no filling or cutting is
(6 + 15) chains
(6 + 12) chains
(6 + 18) chains
None of these.

The number of neutrons will be 6 so the total number becomes 6 + 6 is equal to 12.

How this will occurs?

Can anyone explain clearly?

@Gance.

Where is 1.5 from?

Kamruz said:   9 years ago
I think it is A.

Can you explain it? Please.

1 in 120.

So for 30 m there is rise of 0.25 m.

R.L of formation level at 6 chain = 100+0.25 = 100.25.

Now apply the similar triangles as 1/x = 1.5/(30-X).

Where, 1 = 100.25-99.25.

x = 12.

So the answer B.
