hydraulic jump is formed in a 4 m wide rectangular open channel at a short distance downstream of a control gate. The flow depth just downstream of the gate is 1.8 m and the outlet discharge is 134 m3 /s. The density of water is 1000 kg/m3 . Determine the flow depth downstream of the jump and the headloss in the jump. Express the headloss in kW per metre width.
