2- a) An equation that is commonly used to describe the volume flow rate of water in an open channel is given by 5 1 A3 1A 1 D ŞEO x C3 where D is the volume flow rate in the channel [LPT-4), x is a constant that characterizes the roughness of the channel surface [dimensionless), A is the flow area [L?), Ç is the perimeter of the flow area that is in contact with the channel boundary [L], and E. is the slope of the channel (dimensionless). This equation is usually applied using Sl units, where D is in m/s, A is in m?, and Ç is inm. Is the given equation dimensionally homogeneous? Why?
