Assume you have the channel reach shown that is mild (dn>dc); calculate the upstream and
downstream depths of the hydraulic jump (note there is a hydraulic jump because upstream there
is a gate controlling the water to below critical. Also determine the length of the hydraulic jump.
The flow rate in the channel is 1500 cfs,, the base width is 25 ft and the normal depth is 10 feet.
Round all you answers to the hundredths digit and do not include units in the solutions and on
your scratch paper provide a sketch of the channel in profile view.
