History

Which outcome followed from the practice of 'char-bagh' layout altering natural slope gradients in Mughal gardens?

A)Erratic flow around inlays
B)Sediment buildup blocking channels
C)Pumps powered by slave labor
D)Precise controlled laminar water flow

💡 Explanation

Erratic flow affected inlays because reduced slopes altered laminar flow through the raised 'Pietra dura' channels; surface tension became a strong factor. This caused unpredictable surges, therefore damaging the ornate surfaces rather than maintaining steady aesthetic water features.
