Direction:
Each of the next following twenty (20) items consists of two statements, one labelled as ‘Statement (I)’ and the other as ‘Statement (II)’. You are to examine these two statements carefully and select the answers to these items using code given below:

(c) Statement (I) is true but Statement (II) is false
(d) Statement (I) is false but Statement (II) is true

101. Statement (I): In a flownet, each field must be a (curvilinear) square. Statement
(II): Each flow channel in a flownet has the same rate of flow.
Ans: (d)

102. Statement (I): Boundary layer theory is applicable only in the vicinity of the leading edge of a flat plate.
Statement (II): Boundary layer theory is based on the assumption that its thickness is small when compared to other linear dimensions in the flow.
Ans: (d)

103. Statement (I): The best hydraulic section always has the minimum excavation.
Statement (II): The best hydraulic section gives the minimum area for a given discharge.
Ans: (c)

104. Statement (I): A given channel may be classifiable as mild for one discharge, critical for another discharge, and steep for yet another discharge.
Statement (II): Normal depth and critical depth are independent functions of the discharge along with, or without, other appropriate parameters.
Ans: (a)

105. Statement (I): For a hydraulic ram, D’Aubuisson’s efficiency is always more than Rankine’s efficiency.
Statement (II): By definition, efficiency is always less than unity in any system of mechanics; and addition of a small value to both numerator and denominator in the ratio of such a case always improves the value.
Ans: (a)

106. Statement (I): Air pollutant concentration and time of retention increase due to inversion.
Statement (II): During winter, the heavy cold layer in the atmosphere retains the hot toxic pollutants for a longer period in the atmosphere.
Ans: (a)

107. Statement (I): Chlorides are added to kill pathogens as a disinfection process in the treatment of water.
Statement (II): It forms hypochlorous acid to oxidize the organic compounds including bacteria.
Ans: (d)

108. Statement (I): When a tube well penetrates into a homogeneous aquifer and is then pumped, there will occur lowering of water surface. The resultant surface is designated as ‘Drawdown curve’.
Statement (II): Since the pressure on the surface of the ‘Drawdown curve’ is always at atmospheric level, it is called by this name.
Ans: (b)

109. Statement (I): Fluoride concentrations of approximately 1.0 mg/l in drinking water help to prevent dental cavities in children.
Statement (II): During formation of permanent teeth, fluoride combines chemically with tooth enamel resulting in softer and weaker teeth that are less resistance to decay.
Ans: (c)
