Choose the correct answer
A
S = K [(1-X) O + X I]
B
S = K [X I + (1-X) O]
C
S = K (I + O) / 2
D
S = K x I x X / O
Correct Answer
B. S = K [X I + (1-X) O]

Muskingum: S = K [X I + (1-X) O], where K = travel time through reach (hrs), X = weighting factor (0 to 0.5, 0 for pure reservoir, 0.2-0.3 for natural channels). K and X are determined from observed inflow-outflow data.
