A submerged sharp crested weir 0.81 m high stands clear across a channel having vertical sides and width of 3.15 m. The depth of water in the channel of approach 1.26 m, and 10.5 m downstream from the weir the depth of water 0.93 m. Determine the discharge in litres per minute. Assume Cd₁ = 0.58 and Cd2 = 0.80
