← HistoryWhich outcome results when excessive pressure builds within the water delivery systems of Mughal gardens?
A)Aqueduct collapse occurs catastrophically
B)Pipes experience cyclical water hammering✓
C)Fountains achieve maximum aesthetic height
D)Sediment deposition increases flow
💡 Explanation
Water hammering is produced because rapid valve closure generates pressure waves, resulting in fluctuating forces on pipes. Therefore cyclical hammering will happen because the fluid’s kinetic energy converts into pressure, rather than a static collapse throughout system.
