The flow rate of water flowing in a 3m wide channel is to be measured with a sharp-crested triangular weir 0.5m above the channel bottom with a notch angle of 60Â°. If the flow depth upstream from the weir is 1.5m, determine the flow rate of water through the channel. Take the weir discharge coefficient to be 0.60.
