Consider channels of rectangular cross section carrying 100 cfs of water flow. The channels have a slope

Question:

Consider channels of rectangular cross section carrying 100 cfs of water flow. The channels have a slope of 0.001. Determine the cross-sectional areas required for widths of 2 ft, 4 ft, 6 ft, 8 ft, 10 ft, and 15 ft. Plot A versus y/b, and see how the results compare with the accepted result for the best hydraulic section. Use the Manning equation, with unfinished concrete.
