```

Civil Engineering > GATE 2020 SET-1 > Transportation Engineering

The relationship between traffic flow rate (q) and density (D) is shown in the figure.

The shock wave condition is depicted by

A

flow with respect to point 1 (q₁ = q_max)

B

flow changing from point 2 to point 6 (q₂ > q₆)

C

flow changing from point 3 to point 7 (q₃ < q₇)

D

flow with respect to point 4 and point 5 (q₄ = q₅)

Correct : c
