A rectangular concrete channel 4.5 m wide is carrying water. At an upstream point, the depth of water is 1.5 m and at a downstream point 300 m away, the depth of flow is 1.17 m. If the channel bed slope is 0.0010, find the approximate flow rate. Use n = = 0.0013.

Solution:

A rectangular concrete channel 4.5 m wide is carrying water. At an upstream
point, the depth of water is 1.5 m and at a downstream point 300 m away, the
depth of flow is 1.17 m. If the channel bed slope is 0.0010, find the approximate
flow rate. Use n = 0.0013.
