← HistoryIncreased erosion and undermining occurred during intense monsoon seasons because which pressurized water transport mechanism in ancient Mughal gardens failed?
A)Coanda effect distribution channels
B)Siphon-induced pressure multiplication✓
C)Venturi-enhanced irrigation pathways
D)Aqueduct-based head pressure regulation
💡 Explanation
Siphon action, used in some Mughal gardens to lift water against gravity depending on pressure differentials failed due to increased sediment load and back-pressure. Therefore undermining occurred, rather than retaining structural integrity due to proper maintenance, therefore other channel designs were more maintainable.
