Q.60
Soil Science- ICAR JRF/SRF 2024
Statement Based +4 −1

Given below are two statements

Statement (I) : The slope of mass curve shows the intensities at various time intervals in a storm.
Statement (II) : Hyetograph is derived from the mass curve.

In light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below.

  • Statement (I) is true: A mass curve of rainfall is a cumulative plot of rainfall depth against time ($P$ vs $t$). The instantaneous slope at any point along the curve represents the rate of rainfall depth per unit time ($\frac{dP}{dt}$), which directly defines the rainfall intensity at that interval.
  • Statement (II) is true: A hyetograph is a bar graph of rainfall intensity versus time intervals, which is mathematically derived directly from the step-wise slopes of the cumulative mass curve.
  • Conclusion: Both Statement (I) and Statement (II) are true. (Correct answer: Option 1)
