Width of Throat given Critical Depth Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

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

Functions Used

sqrt - A square root function is a function that takes a non-negative number as an input and returns the square root of the given input number., sqrt(Number)

Variables Used

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.
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.
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.

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
Critical Depth: 2.62 Meter --> 2.62 Meter No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

W_t = sqrt((Q_e)^2/(g*(d_c)^3)) --> sqrt((39.82)^2/(9.8*(2.62)^3))

Evaluating ... ...
