The discharge Q in a rectangular channel is 6m3 /s. The channel width is 3m and flow depth is 2m. (i) The channel width is reduced (no change to bed elevation) to 1.5m at a downstream location. What is the flow depth at the constriction? Determine if choking conditions are present. Explain your answer using of a q-y curve. (ii) The channel width is reduced (no change to bed elevation) to 1.0m at a downstream location. Calculate the upstream water...
please show all the steps thank you 2. Water flowing at the normal depth in a rectangular concrete channel that is 12 m wide encounters an obstruction, causing the water level to rise above the normal depth at the obstruction and for some distance upstream. The water discharge is 126 m3/s, and the channel bottom slope is 0.00086. If the depth of water just upstream from the obstruction (yo) is 4.55 m, find the distance upstream to the point where...
water flows at a rate of 20 m3/s through a rectangular channel 4.0 m wide from a "steep slope" to a 'mild slope", creating a hydraulic jump. The upstream depth of flow is 1.20 m Find the following: (a) the downstream depth of flow, (b) the energy loss in the jump, anid (c) the upstream and downstream velocities 2)

A canoer is aimlessly paddling in the 15 m wide rectangular channel downstream of a dam. The water depth and discharge in the channel are 5 m and 175 m3/s respectively. The dam operator assumes that the channel is clear, and ‘instantaneously’ ramps up the discharge to 210 m3/s, creating a surge that moves downstream. If the canoer is 350 m downstream of the surge at the instant that the surge is created and is able to paddle 1.5 m/s more than the speed of the water below him, will he make it to the dock that is 175 m downstream of him before being hit by the surge?
Supercritical, uniform flow of water occurs in a 5.0 m wide, rectangular, horizontal channel. The depth of flow is 1.5 m and the flowrate is 45 cu.m/s. The flow encounters a 0.25 m rise in the channel bottom. What is the new normal depth? Is the flow after the rise subcritical, critical or supercritical? Assume frictionless flow
