b) Design a trapezoidal channel. for. minimum cross-section area with side slope of 2:1 (H:V), carrying a discharge of 9000 Ips with velocity of 0.75 m/s. Take Manning's n=0.025. For conveying the same discharge, if a rectangular channel 1.5 m deep and 5· m wide is provided, what would be the saving in power per km length of channel?
