A flood occurs in a main channel having a trapezoidal section (side slope 2H:1V) with base 12 m. The flood spills out of over a horizontal plane on one side of the main channel at a depth of 1 m. The width of the flood plane is 120m (side slope 1H:1V). What is the total discharge of the channels of slope for both channels is 0.0002 and roughness coefficients for main channel and the flood plane is 0.025 and 0.040, respectively?
