Question

i)Calculate the flow rate through the system.

shows a cross-section through a structure (marked A) that transitions
water from a 2 m wide rectangular channel with flow depth y = 4 m to a pipe with diameter D = 1 m
at B. The friction loss through the transition is described by the equation h₁ = 0.3%, where vg is the
velocity in the pipe at B. A pressure gauge at the bottom of the pipe B gives a reading of 10 kPa.
Assume a hydrostatic pressure distribution between the top and bottom of the pipe at B.
