Flood Discharge by Inglis Formula Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Discharge = (123*Catchment Area for Flood Discharge)/(sqrt(Catchment Area for Flood Discharge+10.4))
Q = (123*A_{flood discharge})/(sqrt(A_{flood discharge}+10.4))
This formula uses 1 Functions, 2 Variables

Functions Used

sqrt - A square root function is a function that takes a non-negative number as an input and returns the square root of the given input number., sqrt(Number)

Variables Used

Discharge - (Measured in Cubic Meter per Second) - Discharge is the rate of flow of a liquid.
Catchment Area for Flood Discharge - (Measured in Square Meter) - Catchment Area for Flood Discharge is an area of land where all water flows to a single stream, river, lake or even ocean.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Catchment Area for Flood Discharge: 2 Square Meter --> 2 Square Meter No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

Q = (123*A_{flood discharge})/(sqrt(A_{flood discharge}+10.4)) --> (123*2)/(sqrt(2+10.4))

Evaluating ... ...

Q = 69.859305612389

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

69.859305612389 Cubic Meter per Second --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

69.859305612389 ≈ 69.85931 Cubic Meter per Second <-- Discharge

(Calculation completed in 00.004 seconds)
