Compute the peak runoff rate from a 100-acre watershed for a 100-yr storm using the rational method. The estimated 100-year rainfall rate for the catchment is 7 in/hour. Corn is grown on 20 acres of soil group B and remainder of catchment is in permanent pasture, soil group C. (Use a weighted average for the runoff coefficient.)

Problem 2: Designing Culverts Under a Bridge on El Rio de las Aguas Torenciales A 100-year stom event is being considered in order to design the culverts under a bridge. Figure 3 shows the storm event that may fall on the rural watershed of area 3.2 Km that drains into El Rio de las Aguas Torenciales. It generates runoff all over the watershed. The runoff flows into the river towards the ast point A (Figure 4) in the watershed where...
