Consider a rural drainage 24-acre basin having soil group D with good hydrologic condition to be used for the construct of a channel. The land delineation in the basin is 1/2 meadows, 1/4 brush, and 1/4 pasture. If the time of concentration is 0.3-hrs, with a design rainfall of 4.5 in for type-Il distribution, determine the peak flow for this basin for the design of the channel. Insert your graphs.

Estimate ∅-index for a watershed having an area 5 acres. The runoff volume caused by the rainfall is 56000 ft^3. Round off your answer to the nearest whole number. Indicate the unit. Plot the hyetograph and superimpose the final ∅-index. (1 acre = 43560 ft^2) * Using the rounded-off ∅-index, estimate the volume of infiltration losses in cubic feet. *
Based on 14 days runoff data given in TABLE Q3(c), determine the unit hydrograph for the catchment if the area is 4500 km². Separate the baseflow by using appropriate method.
The ordinates of a 6h-UH of a watershed having a drainage area of 393 km^2 are given below. For a storm over the watershed having excess rainfall of 5 cm for the first six hours and 15 cm for the second six hours, compute the direct runoff hydrograph ordinates and plot the hydrograph. Compute the depth of direct runoff in cm. Assuming constant baseflow of 100 m^3/s, compute the storm hydrograph ordinates and plot the hydrograph.
