River rafting: A 20-m-wide, 4.0-m-deep river with a triangular
cross section flows at a lazy 1.0 m/s. As it makes its way to the
sea, the river enters a gorge where rocky walls confine it to a
width of 4.0 m and a depth of 6.0 m, again with a triangular cross
section. What is the river’s volume flow rate? And what is its
speed through the gorge?
