Use the Hazen-Williams equation and the Manning equation to calculate the flow rate for problem 3.5.7on chapter 3 Hydraulic Engineering Systems Fourth Edition by Robert J. Houghtalen which was solved using the Darcy-Weisbach equation and yielded Q = 78.8 m^3/sec. Compare the results and discuss the differences. Assume minor losses are negligible and verify your results with computer software.

Traffic on a northbound highway segment is stationary and is composed of two families of vehicles; cars which travel at speed vc and trucks which travel at speed vt . A moving observer traveling in the opposing (i.e., southbound) direction travels a distance L in time T, L / T = v o. During this trip, the moving observer counts the number of (northbound) cars, mc, and the number of (northbound) trucks, mt, that pass her.
Derive an expression for the total flow of vehicles in the northbound direction in terms of the variables given.
