A particular stream widens as it progresses downstream. Using your answers for parts (a) and (b), briefly describe the changes in discharge. (a) If the cross-sectional area of the stream is 1 m2 and the stream speed is 0.5 m/s, what is the stream's discharge?

(b) If the cross-sectional area of the stream increases to 2 m2 and the stream speed remains 0.5 m/s, what is the stream's discharge?

I think the answer for (a) is:

- (a) - discharge = 1 m2 x 0.5 m/s

- discharge= 2

Am I even on the right track? Please help !
