Question

Find the delta for a crop when its duty is 864 hectares/cumec on the field and the base period of the crop is 120 days.

• A. 400 cm
• B. 310 cm
• C. 120 cm
• D. 864 cm

Answer 1

The correct option is C 120 cm

$\text{Duty}\left(D\right)=\frac{8.64\times B}{\Delta }$
$\text{Here,}B=\text{Base period in days}$
$\Delta =\text{Delta in metre}$
$\therefore \Delta =\frac{8.64\times B}{D}=\frac{8.64\times 120}{864}m$
$=\frac{120}{100}m=120\text{cm}$
