Which one of the following options provides the correct match of the terms listed in Column-1 and Column-2?
Column-1
P: Horton equation
Q: Muskingum method
R: Penman method
Column-2
I: Precipitation
II: Flood frequency
III: Evapotranspiration
IV: Infiltration
V: Channel routing
- P-IV, Q-V, R-III
- P-III, Q-IV, R-I
- P-IV, Q-III, R-II
- P-III, Q-I, R-IV
Correct answer: P-IV, Q-V, R-III
Solution
The Horton equation relates to infiltration (P-IV), the Muskingum method is used for channel routing (Q-V), and the Penman method is a widely accepted approach for estimating evapotranspiration (R-III), making option A the correct match.
