Question: QUESTION 1 The intensity - duration - frequency ( IDF ) relation for a 0 . 1 5 m i 2 watershed is given by:

QUESTION 1
The intensity-duration-frequency (IDF) relation for a 0.15mi2 watershed is given by: i=aTrdtdb+c where Tr is the return period in years, td is the rainfall duration in minutes, i is the rainfall intensity in in ?hr, and a,b,c, and d are empirical constants ). The watershed is single-family residential )=(0.37 and has a time of concentration of 26 minutes. Use the Rational Method to determine the 10-year peak discharge for this watershed in ft3sec2?
QUESTION 2
The intensity-duration-frequency (IDF) relation for a 480 acrewatershed is given by: i=aTrdtdb+c where Tr is the return period in years, td is the rainfall duration in minutes, i is the rainfall intensity in in ?hr, and a,b,c, and d are empirical constants )=101,b=0.99,c=21.5,d=(0.23. The watershed is row crops and small grains on Type B soil with an average runoff curve number CN=76 and has a time of concentration of 2 hours. The unit peak discharge for the Type II rain for the design storm is 210csm.
Use the NRCS peak discharge method to determine the 10-year peak discharge for this watershed in ft3sec?
