Which of the following rainfall-runoff models does not produce a storm hydrograph for a given rainfall hyetograph?

Unit hydrographs
Time-area method
Rational method
Kinematic wave model

Explanation

Answer: C - The Rational method does not provide a storm hydrograph for a given rainfall hyetograph. The Rational method is a peak runoff model that only provides an estimate of the peak discharge from a given watershed. Unit hydrograph techniques, time-area method, and kinematic wave models provide an estimate of runoff for a given time series.
