1.A rectangular brickwork channel with width 20 ft laid on a slope 10ft/mi. What is the flow depth if the flowrate is 300vft^3/s

2.The heated water outflow from a nuclear power plant is cooled in a 50-m wide rectangular channel that has a discharge, Q = 225.0 m3/s. The Manning’s n is 0.015 and the bed slope is 5.0x10-4

The uniform water depth (y0)in the channel is? (assume the flow is “wide and shallow”)
