Chapter 6: homework assignment #3. flood frequency calculations.
define (using a mathematical equation) the term velocity.
define (using a mathematical equation) the term area.
define (using a mathematical equation) volumetric flow rate (q).
the following information was collected by geology students during a recent field trip to a nearby stream.
the distance between two points on the stream is 5250 feet.
it took an orange 30 minutes to travel the 5250 feet distance.
width of the stream = 125 feet
average depth of the stream is 4.75 feet.
what is the velocity of this stream segment?
what is the area for this spot on this stream?
determine the volumetric flow (q) for this stream segment.
