2. Determine
a) time concentration:
Case 1: 225 < tc < 315
Case 2:180 < tc < 225
b)rainfall duration:
Case 1: 765s
Case 2: 675s
c)peak discharge:
Case 1: 266.7x10-6 (m3/s)
Case 2: 283.3x10-6 (m3/s)
d)runoff volume:
runoff volume = Total direct flow
Case 1:
1405x10-6 m3/s x 3600s = 5.058 m3

Case 2:
1240.9x10-6 m3/s x 3600s = 4.467 m3
e)rainfall intensity = rain gauge maximum/rain duration:
Case 1:
19mm/765s = 0.0248 mm/s
Case 2:
20mm/675s = 0.0296 mm/s
f)storage volume = base flow x 3600:
Case 1:
302.1x10-6 m3/s x 3600s = 1.088 m3
Case 2:
272.4x10-6 m3/s x 3600s = 0.981 m3

Case 1
225 < tc < 315
765s
266.7x10-6 (m3/s)
5.058 m3
0.0248 mm/s
1.088 m3

Case 2
180 < tc < 225
675s
283.3x10-6 (m3/s)
4.467 m3
0.0296 mm/s
0.981 m3

We conclude that, all of the deferent value in table between case 1 and
case 2 because the slope. Case 1 without slope and case 2 with slope. We also
observed that the quantity of runoff decreased with increasing slope length.
