14. The equation Q = k × L × H^n is used to calculate the discharge over a trapezoidal notch. What does 'L' represent?
- Length of the bottom base
- Length of the side slope
- Length of the top base
- Average length of the bases
Answer: D) Average length of the bases
Explanation:
In the trapezoidal notch equation, 'L' denotes the average length of the trapezoid's top and bottom bases. It is a length that is used in the calculation.
