Question No. 22 The ordinates of a 2-h unit hydrograph at I hour intervals starting from time t = 0, are 0, 3, 8, 6, 3, 2 and 0m³/s. Use trapezoidal rule for numerical integration, if required. A storm of 6.6 cm occurs uniformly over the catchment in 3 hours. If o -index is equal to 2 mm/h and base flow is 5 m³/s, what is the peak flow due to the storm?
