← HistoryIn Mughal gardens, which outcome resulted when water jet pumps could not overcome required head pressure?
A)Sediment accelerated nozzle erosion
B)Water feature flow stagnated✓
C)Algae growth blocked filters
D)Pietra dura mosaic cracking occurred
💡 Explanation
Stagnant flow resulted if pumps failed to pressurize jets because insufficient hydrostatic head could not overcome gravitational potential energy; flow reduces or ceases altogether, therefore fountains functioned improperly, rather than causing erosion, filter blockage, or mosaic damage.
