History

Which outcome arose when the inclined plane's design limitations hindered lift in Archimedes' screw pumps irrigating early Mughal gardens?

A)Reduced flow to cascade fountains
B)Erosion increased near overflow jets
C)Pump efficiency peaked at night
D)Decreased fish supply to pools

💡 Explanation

Reduced flow to fountains occurred because the Inclined Plane principal suffered back-flow at steeper gradients within imperfectly constructed Archimedes’ screws; therefore, water reached display fountains more slowly, rather than other hydraulic effects in pools.
