1. Calculate the normal depth in a concrete trapezoidal channel with side
slope of 1 to 3, a bed slope of 0.00033, a bottom width of 4.0 m and a
water discharge of 39 m/s. Manning coefficient is 0.013.

Example
The cross section of the river in flood stage has the dimensions shown below:
-30.5 m
30.5 m
1.52 m
1.52 m
Estimate the total discharge if Manning's n= 0.05 for the overbank, and 0.03 for the main channel,
and the channel slope is 0.00167. Also, what is the mean velocity for each section?
