A trapezoidal channel carries 1.2 m/s of flow on a longitudinal slope of 0.003. If channel surface is based on concrete with trowel finish at minimum flow condition and the side slope is 1.5(H):2(V), estimate the best hydraulic section according to Chezy's approach. (Justify the unstated parameter(s) in your calculation).
