The 10-minute triangular unit hydrograph for a watershed has a peak discharge of 100 ft'/s at 40 minutes and a total duration of 90 minutes. Compute the streamflow hydrograph from this watershed for a rainstorm in which 2.1 inches of rain falls in the first 10 minutes and 1.1 inches in the second 10 minutes based on the assumption that the loss rate is p= 0.6 inches/hour and the base flow rate is 20 ft/s.
