The ratio of the rate of change of discharge of an outlet and parent channel, is known as
efficiency
sensitivity
flexibility
modular limit.
Answer: Option
Explanation:
Flexibility: It provides a criteria for judging the behaviour of modules and semi-modules. It is generally denoted by letter 'F'. It is the ratio of the rate of change of outlet discharge to the rate of change of discharge of the parent channel.
