Doesn't depend upon the radius due to the concentrated load applied in a semicircular arch.

@Prachi.
That is for the parabolic arch, not semicircular.

General equation of horizontal thrust for this condition will be;
H = Wl/4h.
h = l/2.
5/2.5:7.5/3.75:10/5.
= 1:1:2.
H = Wl/4h.
h = l/2.
5/2.5:7.5/3.75:10/5.
= 1:1:2.

Three hinged arches h is independent of radius hence ratio must be 1:1:1.

1:1:1.
H=w/π.
H Not depend on radius.
H=w/π.
H Not depend on radius.

Agree the given answer is wrong.
It doesn't depend on radius.
So, the answer is D.
It doesn't depend on radius.
So, the answer is D.
