@Saeed.

It's the value of d square. So, the answer given is correct.

Min v = 0.45.
b= 2d,
q = AV.

1.5 = b*d *0.45.
1.5= 2d*d*0.45 ,,d^2=1.5/0.9= 1.36.
d=1.36.

Develop a relation between a diameter of the circular section of a sewer and a side of the rectangular sewer section having width as twice its depth, the three sides being wetted.

Isn't Q supposed to be in m^3/sec?
In question, it's given 1.5 m/sec.

Why and how to take V= 1.62 m/sec? @Jinish.

Jinish said:   6 years ago
Take v= 1.62 m/sec.

B=2 D.
Q=AxV.
A= B * D.
A= 2 *D * D = 2D^2.

So Q=AxV and Q = 1.5 m/sec.
1.5= 2D^2 * 1.62.
1.5/1.62= 2D^2.
1.5/ 1.62*2 = D^2,
D= .68m.
B= 2D = 2*0.68 = 1.36 m.

According to me, it is (Q/v) = 1.5 * 0.9 = 1.35.
