(a) A 3 m wide rectangular channel discharges $5.1 \mathrm{~m}^{3} / \mathrm{s}$, the depth of flow being 0.75 m . If due to a sudden release of flow, the upstream discharge rate is doubled, find the velocity of the consequent surge. Find also the ne...
(a) Find the slope of the free water surface in a rectangular channel of width 20 m , having depth of flow 5 m . The discharge through the channel is $50 \mathrm{~m}^{3} / \mathrm{s}$. The bed of the channel is having a slope of 1 in 4000 . Take $C=6...
