← HistoryWhich outcome occurred frequently in Mughal garden fountains due to blocked 'Pietra dura' nozzles?
A)Uneven water jet heights✓
B)Increased pump motor failure
C)Algae bloom acceleration
D)Decreased system water pressure
💡 Explanation
Uneven water jet heights occurred because partial blockages within the narrow pietra dura inlets disrupted uniform flow—a consequence of the Coanda effect increasing deflection for partially blocked nozzles. Therefore jet heights varied, rather than outright pump failure or pressure loss across the system generally.
