SECTION-B
Q2. What is profile levelling? Discuss its procedure in detail.
Q3. What is Sprinkler irrigation system? What are the main components of sprinkler irrigation
system? Write its advantages and disadvantages. Draw a labelled layout diagram of
sprinkler irrigation system.
Q4. What are the different components of underground pipe line system? Write the function of
each component. Draw the neat labelled diagram of layout of underground pipeline system.
Q5. What are the precautions to be taken while installing wire for measurement of irrigation
water?
Q6. What are the factors affecting soil erosion? Discuss the mechanics of water erosion.
SECTION-C
Q7. A pump lifts 1600 litres of water per minute against a total head of 21 metres. Compute the
water horse power. If the pump has an efficiency of 75%. What size of motor is required to
operate the pump? If a direct drive electric motor having an efficiency of 85% is used to
operate the pump, compute the cost of electrical energy in a month of 30 days. The pump is
operated for 8 hours daily for 30 days. The cost of electrical energy is Rs. 3.5 per unit.
Q8. What are the different agronomic and engineering soil and water conservation measures?
Discuss various agronomic and engineering measures in detail.
Q9. Assume an earth channel on a grade of 0.15% with the depth of water as 0.9 m, bottom
width as 60 cm and side slopes 1.5:1. Calculate the velocity of flow and carrying capacity
of the channel. The Manning?s roughness coefficient is 0.035.
