Width of Section given Wetted Areas Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary
Formula Used
Width of Section of Rect Channel = Wetted Surface Area of Rectangle/Depth of Flow of Channel
Brect = Arect/Df
This formula uses 3 Variables
Variables Used
Width of Section of Rect Channel - (Measured in Meter) - Width of Section of Rect Channel is the width of the rectangular cross-section of the beam parallel to the axis in consideration.
Wetted Surface Area of Rectangle - (Measured in Square Meter) - Wetted Surface Area of Rectangle [length^2] is the total area of outer surface in contact with the surrounding water.
Depth of Flow of Channel - (Measured in Meter) - Depth of Flow of Channel is the distance from the top or surface of the flow to the bottom of a channel or other waterway or Depth of Flow at the Vertical while measuring Sound Weights.
STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit
Wetted Surface Area of Rectangle: 54.08 Square Meter --> 54.08 Square Meter No Conversion Required
Depth of Flow of Channel: 5.2 Meter --> 5.2 Meter No Conversion Required
STEP 2: Evaluate Formula
Substituting Input Values in Formula
Brect = Arect/Df --> 54.08/5.2
Evaluating ... ...
Brect = 10.4
STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit
10.4 Meter --> No Conversion Required
FINAL ANSWER
10.4 Meter <-- Width of Section of Rect Channel
(Calculation completed in 00.004 seconds)
