During a 3 hour storm event, it was observed that all abstractions other than infiltration are negligible. The rainfall was idealized as three one hour storms of intensity 10 mm/hr, 20 mm/hr and 10 mm/hr respectively and the infiltration was idealized as Horton's curve, φ = 6.8 + 8.7 e–t. [φ in mm/hr and t in hr] The effecitve rainfall is ______________ mm.

For a catchment, the Scurve (or Shydrograph) due to a rainfall of intensity 1 cm/hr is given by Q = 1 – (1 + t ) e–t (t in hr and Q in m3/s). The ordinate of a 2hour unit hydrograph for this catchment at t = 3 hour, will be ___________ m3/s.
