Which consequence resulted from inaccuracies affecting medieval Islamic irrigation systems?

💡 Explanation

Uneven water distribution arose because algebraic miscalculations affected qanat design; therefore, sections received differing water volumes along aqueducts that used Torricelli's law to find parabola of fluid jet to evenly provide discharge, rather than equal water diversion into lateral arms.
