Consider the channel with a trapezoid shape cross-section. The bottom width is b -2 m, the depth is h2m and the slope of the side walls is p1.6. The length of the channel is L1.6 km and the difference between the bottom elevation at the two sections is ah 105 cm. The slope of the channel is constant in space. Determine the smoothness coefficient (k?) if the bankfull flow is Q10 ms?
