Question 2

What would be the volume of water stored in a saturated Colum with a porosity of 0.35 with a cross-sectional area of 1m3 and depth of 3 m?

Question 3

When 3.5 million m3 of water was pumped out from an unconfined aquifer of 6.3 km2 areal extents, the water table was observed to go down by 2.5m. the specific yield of the aquifer is best approximated as

Question 4

Double mass curve are used

Question 5

The coefficient of variation of the rainfall for six rain gauge stations in catchments was found to be 29.54%. the optimum number of stations in the catchments for an admissible 10% error in the estimation of the mean rainfall will be

Question 6

What is the probable Maximum Precipitation (PMP)?

Question 7

For which one of the following purposes is the double mass curve used?

Question 8

An unconfined aquifer of porosity 30% permeability 35m/day and specific yield of 0.20 has an area of . If the water table falls by 0.25m during a drought, the volume of water iost from storage, in million cubic metres, is

Question 9

Which one of the following is a method of extending the length of record for a frequency curve at a station?

Question 10

Generally to estimate PMP, Pm=42.16 D0.475 is used (Pm is maximum depth of precipitation, D = duration). What are the units of Pm and D in the equation?
