The product Zy in a Trapezoidal channel is 2 and the side slope is1/2. Calculate the wetted perimeter of the channel section if the wetted is 32m2.

The product Zy in a Trapezoidal channel is 2 and the side slope is1/2. Calculate the wetted perimeter of the channel section if the wetted is 32m2. Correct Answer 14.94m

Zy=2;y=4m A = (B+Zy)y;B=6m Wetted Perimeter = B+2y√(1+Z2) P = 14.94m.
