a. Design a screen that is to be placed in a rectangular channel which transports water from an intake to a water treatment plant. Please use the following data to calculate:
(i) The coefficient of efficiency of the screen
(ii) Velocity in the channel upstream of the screen
(iii)Actual velocity through the screen when the screen is clean
(iv)The head loss through the screen when the screen is clean and 50% clogged
(v) Depth of flow y2 in the channel downstream of the screen
