Exercise : Water Resources Engineering - Section 1
6.
Pick up the correct statement from the following :
Rain which is intercepted by buildings, vegetations and other objects, is generally known as rainfall interception
The difference between the total rainfall and intercepted rainfall, is generally called ground rainfall
When rainfall exceeds the interception rainfall, water reaches the ground and infiltration starts
The maximum rate of absorbing water by the soil in any given condition, is known as infiltration capacity
All the above.

7.
The surface Run-off is the quantity of water
absorbed by soil
intercepted by buildings and vegetative cover
required to fill surface depressions
that reaches the stream channels
that gets evaporated.

8.
Pick up the correct equation from the following :
Run off = Surface run off + Ground water flow
Run off = Surface run off - Ground water flow
Run off = Surface run off / Ground water flow
Run off = Surface run off x Ground water flow.

9.
Infiltration capacity of soil depends upon
number of voids present in the soil
shape and size of soil particles
arrangement of soil particles
compaction of the soil particles
all the above.
Answer: Option

No answer description is available. Let's discuss.
10.
Pick up the correct statement from the following :
When rainfall rate exceeds the infiltration capacity, the water enters the soil at full capacity rate
When rainfall rate is less than the infiltration capacity, the infiltration rate is approximately equal to the rainfall rate
The actual infiltration rate at any time may be equal to or less than the infiltration capacity
The actual prevailing rate of infiltration of water in the soil at any time, is known as infiltration rate
All the above.
Answer: Option
Explanation:
No answer description is available. Let's discuss.
