2. Consider a combination inlet as shown below. The curb-opening has size of 5 ft x 0.8 ft and each grate opening has size of 0.7 ft x 0.2 ft. The inlets can be an orifice or a weir depending on the water depth at the inlet. Assume a discharge coefficient of 0.6 for an orifice and 3.0 for a weir. Determine the total discharge through the combination inlet when the water depth at the inlet is: a) 0.5 ft b) 1.0 ft (5 pts) 5 ft > 1 0.8 ft 0.2 ft 0.7 ft
