The left and right water edges of a river are 3.75m and 65.25m, respectively, from an initial reference point. Verticals are located at distances of 11.25, 19.25, 27.25, 35.25, 43.25, 51.25, and 59.25m, respectively, from the reference point. The corresponding depths of verticals are 5.2, 9.7, 9.6, 10.0, 10.4, 10.0 and 4.2 meters. Mean velocities in the verticals are 0.16, 0.60, 0.75, 0.92, 0.97, 0.98, and 0.65 m/sec, respectively. Disregarding the end sections, determine the following: Discharge & Mean velocity of the river.

PROBLEM SET 2
The left and right water edges of a river are 3.75m and
65.25m, respectively, from an initial reference point.
Verticals are located at distances of 11.25, 19.25, 27.25,
35.25, 43.25, 51.25, and 59.25m, respectively, from the
reference point. The corresponding depths of verticals are
5.2, 9.7, 9.6, 10.0, 10.4, 10.0 and 4.2 meters. Mean
velocities in the verticals are 0.16, 0.60, 0.75, 0.92, 0.97,
0.98, and 0.65 m/sec, respectively. Disregarding the end
sections, determine the following: Discharge & Mean velocity
of the river.
