← HistoryWithin Mughal garden water channels, which outcome results when the 'chaadar' stones are subtly inclined?
A)Turbulent flow and visual shimmer✓
B)Laminar flow and sediment settling
C)Reduced water evaporation rates
D)Increased algae growth rates
💡 Explanation
Increased flow induces turbulent flow on the inclined surface, generating increased surface area & light disruption ('shimmer') because of momentum transfer creating instability. Therefore turbulent flow and visual effects occur, rather than laminar calming as on a level surface.
