Determine the normal depth for the problems below (Note that you can use FlowMaster or webbased flow calculators to do iterations in these problems).
a) Given a triangular grass channel (Buffalo grass (Good stand, uncut (3 to 6 in.))) with the m=2 and a channel bed slope of 0.002, find the normal depth if Q=30m3s. You can use either the methodology for grass channels given in your book or from the 1st edition book that was presented during one of the live sessions. (8 points)
b) Given a rectangular channel that has a bottom of unfinished concrete and sides of masonry (dry rubble), find the normal depth if Q=350cfs. The channel slope is 0.003 and the bottom width of the channel is 10 ft . To determine the Manning's n utilize the Einstein and Banks formula. (7 points)
