Challenge Problems
Push your limits with advanced challenges
A channel has a depth that varies from 2 ft to 3 ft over a distance of 50 ft. Derive the equation relating flow velocity changes to the slope using Bernoulli's principles.
💡 Hint: Use energy conservation and differentiate between depth changes.
If the flow has a Froude number of 0.8, explain its significance and implications for flow type in a channel.
💡 Hint: Draw connections between flow types and energy regimes.
