Time and time related variables in engineering

Time is the event progression starting from past to present and then, future statistically. The time-related variable is any particular value in relation to time to assess its changes on a specified (XY) plane.

PLEASE ANSWER QUESTION #3
15. A circular pipe has a diameter of 1 m, bed slope of 1 in 1000, and Manning's roughness coefficient equal to 0.01. It may be treated as an open channel flow, when it is flowing just full, i.e. the water level just touches the crest. The discharge in this condition is denoted by Qfull Similarly, the discharge when the pipe is flowing half, i.e. with a flow depth of 0.5 m, is Qfull denoted by Qhalf. The ratio is Qhalf ●
