Problem 5. A small river is in flood stage and you need to estimate the flow rate through it. The main channel has a Manning coefficient of 0.025, while the flood plain is covered in light brush and has a larger Manning coefficient of 0.040. The idealized river cross-section is shown below (not to scale). Flood Plain Channel n0.040 n 0.025 12ft 500 Ft 8 ft 100 ft
