A commonly used equation for calculating the velociry of uniform flow in open channels (v) is V=(1)/(n) R^2 / 3 S0^1 / 2 where v is the velocity of uniform flow, n is the Manning coefficient, R is the hydraulic radius, and S0 is the bed slope. Find the dimensions of the Manning coefficient to ensure that the equation is homogeneous. | Numerade
