Question: Problem 1 : 6 0 % . Watershed ( A ) has the 1 5 - minutes unit hydrograph ordinates

Problem 1: 60\%. Watershed "\( A \)" has the 15-minutes unit hydrograph ordinates as:
Compute the area of the watershed based on the UH ordinates.
Consider that there are 5 rainfall pulses every 15 minutes as follows: \(0.5,1.0,0,1.2,0.3\)(all in inches). Compute the effective rainfall (or excess rainfall) for the five rainfall pulses using:
a) The \(\phi \)-index method and assume that \(\phi \) is equal to 0.4 inch per hour.
b) The SCS method, assume \(\mathrm{CN}=88\).
After you obtain the effective rainfall from each method, predict the Direct Runoff Hydrodraph as done in the Excel file. Plot the results of the DRH.
Assume that the base flow is 40 cfs , provide the total outflow hydrograph.
