ENVIRONMENTAL Engineering Objective Questions :-
1. Assertion A : The consumption of water increases with increase in the
distribution pressure. Reason R : Higher distribution pressure causes more loss and waste of water. Select your answer according to the coding system given below a) Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A. b) Both A and R are true but R is not the correct explanation of A. c) A is true but R is false. d) A is false but R is true. Ans: a 2. The per capital consumption of a locality is affected by i) climatic conditions ii) quality of water iii) distribution pressure The correct answer is a) only (i) b) both (i) and (ii) c) both (i) and (iii) d) all (i), (ii) and (iii) Ans: d 3. Which of the following causes a decrease in per capita consumption ? a) use of metering system b) good quality of water c) better standard of living of the people d) hotter climate Ans:a 4. The hourly variation factor is usually taken as a) 1.5 b) 1.8 c) 2.0 d) 2.7 Ans:a 5. If the average daily consumption of a city is 100,000 m3, the maximum daily con¬sumption on peak hourly demand will be a) 100000m3 b) 150000m3 c) 180000m3 d) 270000 m3 Ans:d ENVIRONMENTAL Engineering Mcqs 6.
