Question: The flow rate in a rectangular channel with a width of 1 m is 0 . 5 m 3 / s and the water depth

The flow rate in a rectangular channel with a width of 1 m is 0.5 m3/s and the water depth is 0.8 m.(1)
Find the corresponding water depth that can flow with the same specific energy as the specific energy for this flow rate,
(2) the limiting water depth for this flow, and (3) the ratio of the specific energy after the diversion to the specific energy before the diversion. Here, the kinetic energy correction factor is 1.005.
