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...
A 10-m wide rectangular channel is carrying a discharge of 400 m3/s at a flow depth of 3.0 m. Determine the flow depth downstream of a step of 0.3 m if the step is: (i) a rise, and (ii) a drop. Does the water surface rise or drop downstream of the step in each case?
Water flowing at a depth of 4-foet and a velocity of 5.5 f/sec in a 10-foot ular channel encounters a 6-inch hump on the floor of the channel. 8.

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?
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)
