Question:

Water flows in a rectangular channel at a rate of \(q=20 \mathrm{cfs} / \mathrm{ft}\). When a Pitot tube is placed in the stream, water in the tube rises to a level of \(4.5 \mathrm{ft}\) above the channel bottom. Determine the two possible flow depths in the channel. Illustrate this flow on a specific energy diagram.
