Question 1
A design involves a channel that's 5 m wide and 3 m deep. If water flows at 8 m/s, what is the Froude number? Discuss the implications.
💡 Hint: Remember to find the effective depth in your calculations.
Question 2
Evaluate how changing the channel width from 5 m to 10 m while maintaining velocity could affect the Froude number and justify your reasoning.
💡 Hint: Consider how wider channels influence depth and velocity.
