For slope (M) up to 20%.
Slope correction(Sc) = h^2/(2l).
Here d = 20m,
M = h/d,
0.2 = h/20.
H = 0.2 * 20 = 4m.
Here the nearest one is 3m.
So 3m is the appropriate answer.

For slope (M) up to 20%.
According to me, the solution is;


Slope correction(Sc) = h^2/(2l).
Here d = 20m,
M = h/d,
0.2 = h/20.
H = 0.2 * 20 = 4m.

l = 20 m.
H2 = 2l,
H2 = 2*20,
H2 = 40.
And;
H = 6.32 or 6.33,
√40 = 6.32.

How it will be 3m?

Please explain clearly with the completed formula.

Second term will be neglected when h=3cm not 3meter for length 20 meter.

The second term can be negleted only if the slopes flatter than 1 in 25..
That means 4%.

i.e, 4% of 20m = 0.8(4/5) ie, H shouldn't higher than 0.8m.
So option A is right.

H^2=2*20.
=6.32.

SUBSTITUTE THE VALUE IN THE FORMULA.
6.32^2/2*20+6.32^4/8*(20^3).
0.998+2.492=3.4 (approx).

The answer should be A. 1/2m.

With ref of Punmia : the second term in slope correction shall be neglected for slopes flatter than about 1 in 25 (i.e slope should be lesser than 0.04).

The slope is Vertical distance/Horizontal distance.
.
Here Vertical distance is h and the horizondal distance is √((L)^2 - (h)^2).

L = 20 given in the problem. We need to find, for which value of h the slope will be less than 0.04.

Sub h = 0.5, we get slope = 0.025;
Sub h = 1, we get slope = 0.050;
Sub h = 2, we get slope = 0.100;
Sub h = 3, we get slope = 0.150;

Therefore Option A (h=0.5m) is the correct answer.
