History

Which effect was reduced in the Taj Mahal's water channels when the water level was too low?

A)Infiltration rate increased drastically
B)Salt deposition visibly accelerated
C)Pietra dura coloring faded unevenly
D)Fountains' hydraulic head dropped greatly

💡 Explanation

Reduced water level lowers the pressure leading into the fountains; this decreases the fountain's visible height due to decreased hydraulic head, because pressure dictates flow and height. Therefore, fountain height decreases, rather than changes in infiltration, salt, or inlay because those respond to other factors.
