Question: A 1 0 m wide, rectangular, concrete - lined channel ( Manning coefficient, n = 0 . 0 1 3 ) has a bottom slope

A 10m wide, rectangular, concrete-lined channel (Manning coefficient, n =0.013) has a bottom
slope of 0.001 and a constant-level reservoir at the upstream end. The reservoir water level is
6.0m above the channel bottom at entrance. Assuming the entrance loss coefficient k=0.01,
determine the channel discharge.
The channel is connected to another long rectangular concrete channel of the same width and
friction but with a slope of 0.01. The downstream channel ends at a free fall. Calculate the water
depths and sketch and name the surface profiles at important locations, from the entrance to the
free fall.
