In what unit of measurement is discharge usually measured when referring to water flow

History
1 answer:
loris [4]3 years ago
5 0
The discharge<span> of a stream is the product of its velocity </span><span>(V </span>- length of travel per unit of time such as feet/second) times depth of the water (D<span> - unit of length) times width (</span>W of the water<span>- units of length). (Make sure all all three lengths are expressed in the same unit.)</span><span><span>
Discharge = V x D x W</span>If length is measured in feet and time in seconds, Discharge has units of <span>feet3/sec</span> or cubic feet per second (cfs).Depth times Width gives the cross-sectional area. The shape of the channel is important because of the reduction in velocity due to friction along the channel margins. In a natural situation, an increase in discharge (cubic feet/second) will result in an increase in all three parameters - the river becomes wider, deeper and flows at a higher velocity.</span>

The Constitution divides the powers of government among the three
lesya [120]

<em>A. Maintain a balance of power among them.</em>

Explanation:

The United States Constitution divides the powers of the government into the <u>Legislative Branch, Executive Branch, and Judicial Branch</u>. Each have their own powers and have a purpose into maintaining what goes on in the government. All of them are pretty fairly balanced and cannot get one thing done without the other. It is balanced and all of the branches need each other to thrive and continue creating order and peace. <u>An example of this would be</u> that the Legislative Branch creates laws, while the Executive Branch enforces them and the Judicial Branch decides whether or not they are constitutional.
