At uniform equilibrium, water flows in a trapezoidal grass waterway (bottom width: 2 m,
sidewall slope: 1V:3H), the flow depth is 1.1 m and the longitudinal bed slope is
21.3 m/km. Assume a Gauckler–Manning coefficient of 0.045 s/m1/3. Calculate: (a) discharge, (b) critical depth, (c) Froude number, (d) Reynolds number and (e) Chézy coefficient. The fluid is water at 20°C.
