Question: Q 1 . An 8 - ft wide rectangular channel with a bed slope of 0 . 0 0 0 4 f t f t

Q1. An 8-ft wide rectangular channel with a bed slope of 0.0004ftft has a depth of flow of 2ft. Assuming steady uniform flow, determine the discharge in the channel. The Manning roughness coefficient is n=0.015.
Q2. Determine the normal depth (for uniform flow) if the channel described in Q1 has a flowrate of 100cfs.
Q3. What is the full capacity flow rate (according to Mannings equation) for a circular channel. Show your derivation. (i.e.,Q=(:F(S0,n,D)}.
Q4. For a 1.5m pipe, n=0.015, and S0=0.02, find the full capacity flow rate. What would the height of flow be when the flow rate in the channel is running at its quarter capacity =14Qfull). Use the Manning equation and Rh and A equations for the circular shape, and then use the monograms, you should get the same answer.
Q5. Top width (T) is the width of the top of the water surface in a channel. Find a formula that describes the Top width (T) for a circular channel in terms of and D.(i.e.,T=F(,D)). Check your formula for a half full open channel flow.
