← HistoryWhich acoustic outcome arises with carefully shaped water features in Mughal garden design?
A)Reduced mosquito larval habitat
B)Enhanced irrigation water distribution
C)Amplified complex harmonic overtones
D)Localized masking of background noise✓
💡 Explanation
The "Chadar" water feature utilizes thin, sloped water sheets; the cascading produces broadband noise via turbulent flow, overshadowing unwanted sounds. This acoustic masking occurs because turbulent energy dissipates into sound, therefore improving perceived tranquility rather than irrigation, harmonics, or mosquito reduction.
