7. A rectangular channel 6 m wide and 2 m deep has a slope of 1 in 1100 and is lined with good rubble masonry (n = 0.017). It is desired to increased the channel slope with a favorable section. The dimension of the section maybe changed but the channel must contain the same amount of lining as the old. Using kutter's formula: a) Compute the value of kutter's coefficient "C" of the old channel b) Compute the depth of new section c) Compute the probable increase in discharge
