Actually formula a and b are wrong
It's
1136(p/5 +10).
4637under root p(1-0.01under root p).
That's why answer is C?
If above formulas were right then and must be b because it is suggested by Indian standards

I think b would be more appropriate because Indian standard code recommend it to be used in Indian condition.

Yes, Option D (none of the above answers is correct).
Due to Kuching's Formula:
Q=3182 X √P.
Due to Kuching's Formula:
Q=3182 X √P.

Kuchling's formula. Q=3182 * √ P, where P is in thousands and Q in litres/min.

Kuchling's formulae is appropriate and most satisfactorily to measure fire demands.
