Sample UPSC ESE Civil questions with solutions
From the free tests in this series — the rest of the series is written the same way.
Hydrology & Irrigation
1. A 1-hour unit hydrograph has a peak ordinate of Qp. If the same unit volume of 1 cm of runoff is applied instantaneously at time zero (IUH), the peak flow value will be:
- A.Exactly equal to Qp
- B.Smaller than Qp
- C.Greater than Qp
- D.Exactly zero
Show answer & solution
Answer: C
An instantaneous unit hydrograph compresses the delivery of the 1 cm runoff volume into an infinitesimal time step, generating a steeper rising limb and a higher peak discharge than any finite-duration unit hydrograph.
Engineering Ethics & Values
2. An engineer discovers a severe code non-compliance in a fire safety design executed by a close colleague in their firm. Professional responsibility mandates that the engineer should:
- A.Cover up the error to protect the friendship
- B.Go straight to a criminal court, no discussion
- C.Resign quietly without reporting the hazard
- D.Raise it with the colleague, escalate if unfixed
Show answer & solution
Answer: D
Public safety comes first, but the fair first step is to raise the non-compliance with the colleague so that it can be corrected quickly. If the colleague will not fix a critical fire-safety hazard, the engineer must escalate it formally, to the firm's management and, if necessary, to the approving authority.
Hydrology & Irrigation
3. A triangular unit hydrograph has a time-to-peak of 12 hours and a total time base of 36 hours. The peak ordinate occurs at what percentage of the time base?
- A.50.0 percent
- B.33.3 percent
- C.25.0 percent
- D.66.6 percent
Show answer & solution
Answer: B
Percentage of time base = (Time-to-peak / Total time base) × 100 = (12 / 36) × 100 = 33.33 percent.
