QUESTION 3
3.1. A trapezoidal channel convey 15 m³/s of water on a bed slope of 1 in 200.
The base width of the channel is 5 m and the side slope of 1:2. Assume
Manning's roughness coefficient (n) of 0.017. Calculate the normal flow depth
and velocity.
3.2. A water (Temperature = 20 °C) is flowing in a commercial steel pipe at a
flowrate of 5 m%s. The diameter and length of the pipes are 50 cm and 500 m,
