Expert Solution
Step 1

Given data

y1=6 ftb=8 ftQ=30000 gal/min=66.84 ft3/s

Step 2

The discharge is given by the following expression:

Q=0.611+0.61H/y1Hb2gy1

Substitute the necessary values in above equation

66.84 ft3/sec=0.611+0.61H/6 ftH6 ft232.2 ft/s26 ft

By solving the above expression

H=0.72 ft

steps
