Which characteristics of contour lines are true?
• Contour lines cannot cross each other in general
• Contour lines close together indicate steep slope
• A close contour line with lower value inside represents a hill
• A close contour lines with higher value inside represents a valley
• Contour lines spaced far together indicate a gentle slope Choose the correct answer from the options given below:

The length of a line measured with a 30 m chain was found to be 500 m. Calculate the true length of the line if chain was 5 cm too long.

The diameters of a pipe at point A and point B are \(5 \, \text{cm}\) and \(7.5 \, \text{cm}\) respectively. Find the discharge and velocity at point B, if the velocity of water at point A is \(2.5 \, \text{m/sec}\).

Which of the following statements are correct regarding the orifices and weirs? A. In orifice, the coefficient of discharge is product of coefficient of velocity and contraction B. Vena contracta is term used in rectangular weir C. The sheet of water flows over a weir is called as nappe D. Cipolletti is a type of orifice E. The V type of notch is used for low discharge in furrows Choose the correct answer from the options given below:

The plan of an area has shrink side that line originally \(20\) cm now measures \(19.5\) cm. If the original scale of plan is \(1\) cm \(= 10\) m, determine (i) correct distance to a measured distance of \(198\) m (ii) correct area corresponding to measured area of \(20000\ \text{m}^2\) Choose the correct answer from the options given below:
