flow rate of 2.1 cu.m./s is to be carried in an open channel at a velocity of 1.3 m/s. n = 0.020. A. Determine the required slope in x10^-3 (2 decimal places) if the channel is a semi-circular section. B. Determine the required slope in x10^-3 (2 decimal places) if the cross section is trapezoidal with depth equal to the width of the channel bottom and side slope 1:1. C. Determine the required slope in x10^-3 (2 decimal places) if the cross section is rectangular with depth equal to 1/2 its width.
