A grouted riprap, trapezodial channel (n = 0.025) with a bottom width of 4 meters and side slope of m= 1 carries a discharge of 12m3/s on a 0.001 slope. Compute the backwater curve created by a low dam that backs water up to a depth of 2m immediately behind the dam specifically, water depths are required at a critical diversion points that are located at a distance of 188m,423m,748m,1675m, upstream of the dam ( Take normal depth Yn and Yc as 1.66m and 0.92m respectively)

A rectangular concrete (n= 0.020)canal has a slope of 0.0015,is 7m wide,and is carrying 15m3/s. At the upstream end of a broad crested weird, the depth is 3.3m
