QUESTION: A rectangular concrete channel (n =0.015) has a slope of 0.15%. The width of the channel is 6.0 m wide and is carrying a discharge of 12.0 m3/s. Water in the channel flows over a broad crest weir, where at the upstream end of the weir the water depth is 3.50 m.Show calculation of the following (7) items below and submit along with the Summary Table (8).1. Calculate the critical depth.2. Calculate the normal depth.3. Determine the water surface profile type (backwater or tailwater) and state whether it is a S1, S2, S3, M1 M2 or M3 profile.4. Calculate the number of segments to be used.5. Calculate the upstream and downstream depth of each segment.6. Determine the length of the backwater curve.7. Draw a sketch depicting the weir and the backwater curve.8. Summary Table: Include STA, Elv, D, Area, V, V^2/2g, Height, R, R^4/3, Slope(S), Dist, hf, he, H.
