Question

1. A 3.1 – m wide rectangular flume carries water at 5.60 m3/s. The bed slope is 0.00078 and n = 0.010. At a certain section, the depth is 92 cm.

a. How far therefrom is the depth 80 cm?

b. What is the slope of the egl?

c. What is the headloss?

2. A rectangular channel 1.8 m wide conveys water at a depth of 1.2 m.

a. What is the velocity of flow if it is laid on a slope of 0.002 and n= 0.012?

b. What is the discharge if the channel slopes 0.1° and n = 0.016? Use Kutter’s formula for C.

c. What is the velocity of flow if S = 0.000263 and f = 0.02?
