Question: ( 1 ) Find the discharge of a rectangular channel 5 wide with a 5 % slope, flowing 1 deep. The channel has a stone

(1) Find the discharge of a rectangular channel 5 wide with a 5% slope, flowing 1 deep. The channel has a stone and weed bank (n=.035).(2) Find normal depth in a 10.0-ft wide concrete rectangular channel (n=0.013)having a slope of 0.015 ft/ft and carrying a flow of 400 cfs.In Dane County, a smooth asphalt roadway includes two 12 ft wide lanes. Runoff from the 2 acre watershed has a time of concentration of 20 minutes and CN 74 and flows onto the roadway. The road is at 1.5% longitudinal slope and the traffic lanes with a 4% cross slopes. Inlets are placed at side shoulders 100 ft from the road high point.(3) Determine the 25-year peak rate of runoff to the first inlet on each shoulder. Assume the 2 acre upstream watershed is split equally to each side of roadway.(4) Calculate the flow spread on roadway at the inlet for n =0.013.(5) Using a curb opening inlet determine the length of opening needed to (a) fully (100%) intercept gutter flow and (b) half (50%) intercept gutter flow.
