Question 1

What is ‘Hydrological Cycle’?

Question 2

A Double – Mass-Curve Analysis is useful in

Question 3

The land use of an area and the corresponding runoff coefficients are as follows:

What is the equivalent runoff coefficient?

Question 4

What is the probable Maximum Precipitation (PMP)?

Question 5

The 4–hr unit hydrograph for a catchment is given in the table below. What would be the maximum ordinate of the S–curve (in m4/s) derive from this hydrograph?

Question 6

An isolated 4-hour storm occurred over a catchment as follows

The φ index for the catchment is l0mm/h. The estimated runoff depth from the catchment due to the above storm is_____mm.

Question 7

Group 1 contains parameters and group II lists methods/instruments.
Group I
P. Streamflow velocity
Q. Evapo–transpiration Rate
R. Infiltration rate
S. Wind velocity

Group II
1) Anemometyer
2) Penman’s method
3) Horton’s method
4) Current meter

Question 8

An S-curve hydrograph has been obtained for catchments of area 270 Km2 from a 3 hours unit hydrograph. The equilibrium discharge for the S-curve is

Question 9

A direct runoff hydrograph due to a storm idealized into a triangular shape has a peak flow rate 60 m2/s occurring at 25 hours from its start. If the base width of this hydrograph is 72 hours, and the catchment area is 777.6 km2, the run-off from the storm is
