An open channel of square cross section had a flowrate of 17.2 ft³/s when first used. After extended use, the channel became 0.6-filled
with silt. Determine the flowrate for this silted condition. Assume the Manning coefficient is the same for all the surfaces.

(Manning equation) The triangular flume shown in the figure below is built to carry its design flowrate, Qo, at a depth of 0.991 m as is
indicated. If the flume is to be able to carry up to twice its design flowrate, Q = 2Qo, determine the freeboard, I, needed.
