Perspective planning is a blueprint regarding the objectives and targets of long run growth. The perspective plan is not just a plan, rather to attain certain objectives and targets; the perspective plan is divided into certain smaller plans. A Perspective Plan is a long term (20-25 years) written document supported by necessary maps and diagrams providing the state government the goal s, pol i ci es, st r at egi es and general programmes of the urban local authority regarding spatio-economic development of the settlement under its governance.
Correct Option: C

21600 to 21600
Volume of air getting extracted from the Inlet/OutletArea of Area of Inlet .(V = A × S) Outlet × Speed
Here, The area of inlet and outlet = 2 sq.m, and wind speed = 5m/sec.
Thus, volume of air getting extracted from inlet P per second = 2m² × 5m/sec = 10m³/sec.
As we know, 1 hr. = 60 min = 3600 sec.
Volume of air getting extracted inside from inlet P per hour = 10m³ × 3600/hr. = 36000 m³/hr.
If the co-efficient of effect iveness is 1 then, amount of air getting extracted frominlet = amount of air extracted from outlet.
Here, co-efficient of effectiveness = 0.6
Thus, rate of natural ventilation per hour = 0.6 × amount of air coming inside from inlet P per hour = 0.6 × 36,000 = 21,600 m³/hour.Correct Option: A
