Surface Velocity given Average of Velocity Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Surface Velocity of River = Average Velocity in Vertical/Reduction Factor
v_s = v/K
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Surface Velocity of River - (Measured in Meter per Second) - Surface Velocity of River to get a rough estimate of the runoff.
Average Velocity in Vertical - (Measured in Meter per Second) - Average Velocity in Vertical is the rate at which the water flows in any stream or water body.
Reduction Factor - Reduction Factor is constant term used as factor for load calculation.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Average Velocity in Vertical: 20 Meter per Second --> 20 Meter per Second No Conversion Required
Reduction Factor: 0.95 --> No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

v_s = v/K --> 20/0.95

Evaluating ... ...

v_s = 21.0526315789474

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

21.0526315789474 Meter per Second --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

21.0526315789474 ≈ 21.05263 Meter per Second <-- Surface Velocity of River

(Calculation completed in 00.020 seconds)

Surface Velocity of River = Average Velocity in Vertical/Reduction Factor
v_s = v/K

What is Reduction Factor?

Reduction Factor is defined as the ratio between the average rainfall occurring on a specific area and the point rainfall.

What is Stream Velocity?

Stream Velocity is important because of its impact on water quality and the living organisms and habitats in the stream. Stream Velocity increases as the volume of the water in the stream increases, determining the kinds of organisms that can live in the stream (some need fast-flowing areas; others need quiet pools).
