Match Column X with Column Y: Column X (P) Horton equation (Q) Penman method (R) Chezy’s formula (S) Lacey’s theory (T) Dicken’s formula Column Y (I) Design of alluvial channel (II) Maximum flood discharge (III) Evapotranspiration (IV) Infiltration (V) Flow velocity Which one of the following combinations is correct?

  1. (P)-(IV), (Q)-(III), (R)-(V), (S)-(I), (T)-(II)
  2. (P)-(III), (Q)-(IV), (R)-(V), (S)-(I), (T)-(II)
  3. (P)-(IV), (Q)-(III), (R)-(II), (S)-(I), (T)-(V)
  4. (P)-(III), (Q)-(IV), (R)-(I), (S)-(V), (T)-(II)

Correct answer: (P)-(IV), (Q)-(III), (R)-(V), (S)-(I), (T)-(II)

Solution

The correct option accurately matches each method or formula with its respective application: the Horton equation relates to infiltration, the Penman method is used for calculating evapotranspiration, Chezy’s formula determines flow velocity, Lacey’s theory is applied in the design of alluvial channels, and Dicken’s formula is used for calculating maximum flood discharge.
