Critical Depth at Different Discharges Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Critical Depth = ((Environmental Discharge)^2/(Acceleration due to Gravity*(Width of Throat)^2))^(1/3)
d_c = ((Q_e)^2/(g*(W_t)^2))^(1/3)
This formula uses 4 Variables

Variables Used

Critical Depth - (Measured in Meter) - Critical Depth occurs when the flow in a channel has a minimum specific energy. Specific energy refers to the sum of the depth of flow and the velocity head.
Environmental Discharge - (Measured in Cubic Meter per Second) - Environmental Discharge is the rate of flow of a liquid.
Acceleration due to Gravity - (Measured in Meter per Square Second) - Acceleration due to Gravity is a fundamental physical constant that represents the acceleration of an object due to the force of gravity exerted by the Earth.
Width of Throat - (Measured in Meter) - Width of Throat is the narrowest section of a conduit or channel, such as in a venturi meter or flume.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Environmental Discharge: 39.82 Cubic Meter per Second --> 39.82 Cubic Meter per Second No Conversion Required
Acceleration due to Gravity: 9.8 Meter per Square Second --> 9.8 Meter per Square Second No Conversion Required
Width of Throat: 3 Meter --> 3 Meter No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

d_c = ((Q_e)^2/(g*(W_t)^2))^(1/3) --> ((39.82)^2/(9.8*(3)^2))^(1/3)

Evaluating ... ...

d_c = 2.61965827030927

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

2.61965827030927 Meter --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

2.61965827030927 ≈ 2.619658 Meter <-- Critical Depth
