Water is flowing uniformly in a finished-concrete channel of trapezoidal cross section with a bottom width of 0.8 m, trapezoid angle of 50°, and a bottom angle of 0.4°. If the flow depth is measured to be 0.52 m, determine the flow rate of water through the channel.
Water flows uniformly half-full in a 2-m-diameter circular channel that is laid on a grade of 1.5 m/km. If the channel is constructed of finished concrete, determine the flow rate of the water.
Water flows steadily in a 1.75-m-wide rectangular channel at a rate of 0.85 m3/s. If the flow depth is 0.40 m, determine the flow velocity and if the flow is subcritical or supercritical. Also determine the alternate flow depth if the character of flow were to change.
