Q. The Muskingum model of routing a flood through a stream reach is expressed as

O_{2} = K_{0} I_{2} + K_{1} I_{1} + K_{2} O_{1}

where

K_{0}, K_{1}

, and

K_{2}

are routing coefficient for the concerned reach;

I_{1}

and

I_{2}

are the inflows to the reach and

O_{1}

and

O_{2}

are the outflows from the reach corresponding to time steps 1 and 2 respectively. The sum of

K_{0}, K_{1}

and

K_{2}

of the model is
