A sluice across a channel 6 m wide discharges a stream 1.2 m deep. What will be the tlow if the upstream depth is 6 m? The conditions downstream cause an hydraulic jump to occur at a place where concrete blocks have been placed in the bed. What will be the force on the blocks if the downstream depth is 3.06 m?
