4. A 25 km2 watershed has a time of concentration of 1.6 hr. Calculate the NRCS triangular UH for a 10-minute rainfall event and

plot it. Determine the runoff hydrograph for a 30-minute storm where there is 4 cm of runoff in the first 10 min, 2.5 cm of runoff in the second 10 min, and 2 cm of runoff in the third 10 min. Plot the runoff hydrograph for each 10-minute rainfall excess along with the aggregated (total) runoff hydrograph on the same axes. Also report the peak flow of the aggregated runoff hydrograph. Also report the total volume of runoff. You do not need to report any tables of data.

Answer:

The NRCS triangular UH for a 10-minute rainfall is Qp = 49.84 m³/s

Peak flow of the aggregated runoff hydrograph is 420.58 m³/s

The total volume of runoff is 2125000 m³/s

Explanation:

We have

A = 25 km²

tr = 10 min = 1/6 hr

tc = 1.6 hr

lag time = 0.6 tc = 0.96 hr

Tp = tr/2 + 0.6 tc = 1/12 + 0.96 = 1.043 hr

Qp = 2.08×25/1.043 = 49.84 m³/s

Tb = 8/3×Tp = 8/3×1.043 = 2.782 hr

 

Since the area is  

Time (min)           Runoff (cm)       Volume of runoff m³

0                   0                                     0

10                  4                                     1000000 m³

20                 2.5                                  625000 m³

30                 2                                      500000 m³

Total volume of runoff = 1000000 + 625000 + 500000 =  2125000 m³/s

For the 1st  10 minutes, we have

A = 25 km²

tr = 30 min = 1/2 hr

tc = 1.6 hr

lag time = 0.6 tc = 0.96 hr

Tp = tr/2 + 0.6 tc = 1/4 + 0.96 = 1.21 hr

Qp = 2.08×25×4/1.043 = 197.92 m³/s

Tb = 8/3×Tp = 8/3×1.21 = 3.227  hr

 

For the 2nd 10 minutes, we have

A = 25 km²

tr = 30 min = 1/2 hr

tc = 1.6 hr

lag time = 0.6 tc = 0.96 hr

Tp = tr/2 + 0.6 tc = 1/4 + 0.96 = 1.21 hr

Qp = 2.08×25×2.5/1.043 = 123.7 m³/s

Tb = 8/3×Tp = 8/3×1.21 = 3.227  hr

For the 3rd 10 minutes, we have

A = 25 km²

tr = 30 min = 1/2 hr

tc = 1.6 hr

lag time = 0.6 tc = 0.96 hr

Tp = tr/2 + 0.6 tc = 1/4 + 0.96 = 1.21 hr

Qp = 2.08×25×2.5/1.043 = 98.96 m³/s

Tb = 8/3×Tp = 8/3×1.21 = 3.227  hr

 

Peak flow of aggregate runoff is given by

Qp (total) = 98.96 + 123.7 +197.92 = 420.58 m³/s

Total volume of runoff is given by

Total volume of runoff = 1000000 + 625000 + 500000 =  2125000 m³/s

(TCO 1) Name one disadvantage of fixed-configuration switches over modular switches. a. Ease of management b. Port security b. F
frutty [35]

Answer:

The answer is A.

Explanation:

Two main types of network switches, modular and fixed configuration switches, are used for connecting the devices with one another provided they are on the same network.

As the name suggests, modular switches can be configured according to your needs and specific situations where you need a different setup.

The one advantage fixed-configuration switches have over the modular switches is that they are easier to operate. You can't change anything for a different application but they are simpler to setup and use, you can just plug them in and start using. They are usually for the more casual end-user and home networks etc.

I hope this answer helps.

Consider a system with two tasks, Task1 and Task2. Task1 has a period of 200 ms, and Task2 has a period of 300 ms. All tasks ini
Murrr4er [49]

<u>Explanation:</u>

Task 1 time period = 200ms, Task 2 time period = 300ms

Task ticked = \frac{1000ms}{200ms}= 5  →  5 times

Task 2 ticked =\frac{1000ms}{300ms} = 3.33 → 3 times

At 600 ms → 200ms 200ms 200ms

                     300ms → \frac{30ms}{60ms}

Largest time period = H.C.M of (200ms, 300ms)

                                 = 600ms
