Question
Transcribed Image Text:4.34 In the region just downstream of a sluice gate, the water
may develop a reverse flow region as indicated in Fig. P4.34 and
Video V10.11. The velocity profile is assumed to consist of two
uniform regions, one with velocity V₂ = 10 fps and the other with
V₁ = 3 fps. Determine the net flowrate of water across the portion
of the control surface at section (2) if the channel is 20 ft wide.
