Chapter 11, Problem 41P

A flume of timber has as its cross section an isosceles triangle (apex down) of 2.4 m base and 1.8 m altitude. At what depth will 5 m3/s flow uniformly in this flume if it is laid on a slope of 0.01?

What is the discharge of the pipe into reservoir B if a 1.2 m diameter concrete pipe 1800 m long carries a discharge of 1.417 cu m from reservoir A having an elevation of 90 m,this pipe discharges into two concrete pipes each 1350 m long and 750 mm in diameter.One of the pipe discharges into reservoir B at an elev. Of 84 m .The other pipe discharges into an open channel with a semi circular section having a slope of 0.001.Assuming n=0.011 for all pipes and channel and neglecting minor losses. Select one: O a. 0.122 cu m/s O b. 0.209 cu m/s Oc. 0.743 cu m /s O d. 0.865 cu m/s
Water flows uniformly in a rectangular channel with finished-concrete surfaces. The channel width is 3 m, the flow depth is 1.2 m, and the bottom slope is 0.002. Determine if the channel should be classified as mild, critical, or steep for this flow.
