(A) Estimate the peak discharge and time to peak of the storm hydrograph at location 2(Figure 4), if the inflow hydrograph at location 1(Figure 4) is given in Table 4. The channel through which the inflow hydrograph travels has the weighting factor (x)=0.2 and travel time constant (K) of 10 minutes. Skecth the hydrographs at locations 1 and 2(Figure 4) Showing all salient features.

Table 4. Storm hydrograph at point 1(inflow hydrograph to the channel)
(B)
Discuss how will the hydrograph computed at the outlet of the catchment (Point 2 in figure 4), change if it travels through a reservoir at that location.
(Answers)= Peak discharge, 1.29m^3/sec
Tme to peak =30 mins
Please solve and show working out
