Question:
A longitudinal profile of a river is shown in the figure below. If the average discharge of the river at reach AB is 200 m3/s and increases to 300 m3/s at reach CD, then the stream power from the reach AB to CD will change by a factor of _______. (Round off to two decimal places)
(Use g = 10 m/s2, Pwater = 1000 kg/m3)
