Q7. A 4 m wide rectangular channel, having bed slope of 0.001 carries a discharge of 16 m3 /s. Considering Manning's roughness coefficient = 0.012 and g = 10 m/s2 , the category of the channel slope is
Answer : Option B
Explaination / Solution:

Given discharge (Q) = 16 m3 / sec.
Bed slope (S) = 0.001 
Manning‟s roughness coefficients (n) =0.012
g= 10m/s2 
Width (B) =4m 
Channel is wide rectangular 
Area (A) = B. y 
Perimeter (P) =B 
Hydraulic Radius (R) = A/P = By/B = y
