Q.5 A 6-acre basin in with soil type C is to be developed into 2 acres of commercial use (C = 0.95, CN = 93) and 4 acres of park (C= 0.2, CN = 74) as shown in the figure below. The time of concentrations for these areas are also shown in the figure. (a) Using the Rational Method, what is the design flow at the inlet for: i. 10-year design storm, and ii. 25-year design storm. consider two different scenarios (just commercial area with shorter c, and total area with longer tg) and pick the worst case.

The peak magnitude of 4 hr direct runoff hydrograph over a catchment area is 300 m3/s. The effective rainfall intensity is 1.2 cm/hr and infiltration loss during the same period is 0.4 cm. Find the peak value of the corresponding 4 hr unit hydrograph assuming uniform base flow of 20 m3/s.

Please provide an explanation for evry formula and solution. And be clear with your answer. In 1997, Upper Grand watershed near Maputi, Bukidnon with an area of 4350 sq.km received 77.7 cm of precipitation. The average rate of flow measured in the Grand River, which drained the watershed, was 39.6 cu.m/s. Infiltration was estimated to occur at an average rate of 9.2 x 10-7 cm/s. Evapotranspiration was estimated to be 45 cm/yr. What is the change in storage in the watershed in cm/yr. Also, calculate the runoff coefficient for this watershed.
A 300 acre watershed just south of Chicago is currently undeveloped (woods). The soils are primarily clay, the hydraulic length of the watershed is 6560 ft, and the average lank slope is 1%. Determine the SCS synthetic UH before development and finish the table below. Solution: from Table 11.7; 1. For clay soil with woods cover, CN= 2. The soil moisture deficit S = in; 3. For a watershed with hydraulic length, time of concentration Te= hr min; 4. Time to peak Tp= min: 5. Peak discharge Op= cfsjin; 6. Storm duration is AD= hr= min; 7. The -min UH is displayed below using Table 11.11; Flow Time Time Ratios Flow Ratios (min) (cfs) (t/tp) (9/ap) 21 13 0.1 0.2 40 42 0.31 0.4 0.66 0.6 0,93 0.8 125 121 0.93 1.2 102 146 1.4 0.78 167 73 0.56 1.6 51 188 0.39 1.8

10.3. For some reason, a lined hazardous-waste landfill was located on top of a confined aquifer. Situated approximately 500 m away is a community water supply well which is pumped at a rate of 104 m³/d. If an earthquake occurs which splits open the liner and pollutes the aquifer, how much time is available to shut down the well and avoid withdrawing contaminated water? Assume the follow- ing aquifer characteristics are applicable: hydraulic conductivity = 50 m/d, porosity = 0.2, aquifer thickness = 5 m, and aquifer width = 50 m. (Courtesy of Jim Hunt.)
