A catchment consists of 30% area with runoff coefficient 0.40 and the remaining 70% area with runoff coefficient 0.60. The equivalent runoff coefficient will be
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
If a 4-h hydrograph of a certain basin has a peak ordinate of 80 m3/s, the peak ordinate of a 2-h unit hydrograph for the same basin will be
A 3 h storm on a small drainage basin produced rainfall intensities of 3.5 cm/h, 4.2 cm/h, and 2.9 cm/h in successive hours. If the surface runoff due to the storm is 3 cm, then the value of Ø -index will be
A storm with 14 cm precipitation produced a direct runoff of 8 cm. The time distribution of the storm is as shown in the table below:
What is the value of Ø -index of the storm?
In a river carrying a discharge of 142 m3/s, the stage at station A was 3.6 m and the water surface slope was 1 in 6000. If during a flood, the stage at A was 3.6 m and the water surface slope was 1 in 3000, The flood discharge (approximately) was ________ m3/s.
A standard, ground-based evaporation pan, corresponding to Indian standards, is installed at the banks of a surface reservoir. The water surface area on a particular day is 100 ha. The recorded evaporation loss from the pan on a certain day is nearly 4 cm. What is the anticipated evaporation loss from the reservoir for the day?
The total observed runoff volume during a 4-h storm with a uniform intensity of 2.8 cm/h is 25.2 × 106 m3 from a basin of area 280 km2. What is the average infiltration rate for the basin?
A 3-h unit hydrograph U1 of a catchment of area 235 km2 is in the form of triangle with peak discharge of 30 m3/s. Another 3-h unit hydrograph U2 is also triangular in shape and has the same base width as U1, but has a peak flow of 90 m3/s. What is the catchment area of U2?
A triangular DRH due to a storm has a time base of 80 h and a peak flow of 50 m3/s occurring at 20 h from the start. If the catchment area is 144 km2, then the rainfall excess in the storm is ________ cm.
The numbers of revolutions of a current meter in 50s were found to be 12 and 30 corresponding to the velocities of 0.25 m/s and 0.46 m/s, respectively. What velocity (in m/s) would be indicated by 50 revolutions of that current meter in 1 min?
The parameters in Horton’s infilteration equation 
are given as f 0 = 7.62 cm/h, f c = 1.34 cm/h, and k = 4.182 h. For assumed continuous ponding, the cumulative infiltration at the end of 2 h is
