Determine whether erosion will take place


An earthen channel (n=0.03) has a bed width of 5.0 m, a water depth h = 1.5 m, a 45° side slope, and a channel slope of 0.001. Calculate the average velocity in the channel and the discharge. Determine whether erosion will take place if the maximiun permissible flow of water in an earthen channel is 1.5 m/s.
