Which outcome arises when the channel bed of a Roman aqueduct experiences significant erosion?

💡 Explanation

Reduced water flow arises because erosion increases the channel's roughness, thereby increasing the hydraulic resistance via increased FACRIC ROUGHNESS. The water flow then slows because of reduced hydraulic radius, rather than increased structural integrity.
