Question

Water is flowing in a rectangular channel with a base of 4.0 ft. The velocity gradient from the bottom of the channel to the water surface is given by the equation:

v=3.5y^0.6

Where y is the distance from the bottom of the channel. The total depth of the flow in the channel is 3.0ft.

a) Graph the velocity profile from the bottom of the channel to the water surface.

B) Calculate the flow rate by integration. The first step is to draw a cross-section of channel and on that cross-section, Draw on your figure an elemental area DA that you will then ise in the equation:

Q=integral V.dA
