The correct answer is R^3/4 S^1/2.
R^2/3 S^1/2 is Mannings equation.
And other equation by Lacey is 16 R^2/3 S^1/3 used for calculating the flood discharges in rivers.

There are 2 equations:

Lacey's regime velocity: v = 10.8 R^2/3 S^1/2.
Lacey's non-regime velocity: v = 1/Na R^3/4 S^1/2.
So, the answer should be D.

There are 2 equations:

Lacey's regime velocity: v = 10.8 R^2/3 S^1/3.
Lacey's non-regime velocity: v = 1/Na R^3/4 S^1/2.

Regime flow equation by Lacey's theory is,

V = 10.8.R^2/3.S^1/3.

So, Answer (D) and Bed slope (S) to the power of 1/3 not 1/2.

Mahe said:   8 years ago
None of the option is true because according to the formula the powers are 2/3 & 1/3 for R & S respectively.

Chinmoy said:   7 years ago
You are absolutely right @Mahe.

All other answer is based on Manning's formula.

Laceys regime equation is 1/n(r^3/4s^1/3).

10.8r^2/3s^1/3 is laceys theroy.

According to Lacey's formula,

Regime flow equation V= 10.80 R^2/3 S^1/2.
