Constant used in FPS Unit for Flood Discharge by Dicken's Formula Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary
Formula Used
Constant FPS = (Discharge in cusecs/(Area of Basin)^(3/4))
C1 = (Q1/(A1)^(3/4))
This formula uses 3 Variables
Variables Used
Constant FPS - Constant FPS unit is used and depend upon catchment.
Discharge in cusecs - (Measured in Cubic Meter per Second) - Discharge in cusecs is defined as the volumetric flow rate in F.P.S unit.
Area of Basin - (Measured in Square Meter) - Area of Basin which is also known as catchment area.
STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit
Discharge in cusecs: 5 Cubic Foot per Second --> 0.141584232961699 Cubic Meter per Second (Check conversion here)
Area of Basin: 2 Square Mile --> 5179976.220672 Square Meter (Check conversion here)
STEP 2: Evaluate Formula
Substituting Input Values in Formula
C1 = (Q1/(A1)^(3/4)) --> (0.141584232961699/(5179976.220672)^(3/4))
Evaluating ... ...
C1 = 1.3039744075312E-06
STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit
1.3039744075312E-06 --> No Conversion Required
FINAL ANSWER
1.3039744075312E-06 1.3E-6 <-- Constant FPS
(Calculation completed in 00.004 seconds)
