Question:

For each section designed in Problem 14.36, compute the Froude number and tell whether the flow is subcritical or supercritical.

Complete the following list of tasks for each of Problems 14.39–14.42:

a. Calculate the critical depth.

b. Calculate the minimum specific energy. 

c. Plot the specific energy curve.

d. Determine the specific energy for the given depth and the alternate depth for this energy.

e. Determine the velocity of flow and the Froude number for each depth in (d).

f. Calculate the required slopes of the channel if the depths from (d) are to be normal depths for the given flow rate.
