For the sluice gate below, water is flowing under the gate in a rectangular channel (5 ft bottom width). Find the depth at the downstream of the hydraulic jump (y2), if y1=2 ft? Hint: first, use the conservation of Specific Energy to find Q based on yo and yı (assume negligible energy loss under the sluice gate) Find Froude number at point 1 (Fr:) Then, find y2 using Hydraulic Jump equations based on Fri and y1. Ya = 60 ft-
