(b) An opening of a reservoir is controlled by a sluice gate. The opening is 1.3 m. The water surface elevation upstream of the gate is 100 m. If the elevation of the bed is 85 m and the tailwater elevation is 91 m, what kind of jump will form? What are the sequent depths and the maximum tailwater depth that could be sustained by a free jump? Assume co-efficient of contraction Cc 0.75 and co-efficient of velocity Cv = 0.95 for the sluice gate.
