Water flows in a canal (open channel) as shown in the figure. The flow depth is 2 m and the flow velocity is 3 m/s. It then flows down a contracting chute into another channel where the flow depth becomes 1 m and the velocity is 10 m/s. Determine the difference in floor elevation. Assume incompressible floor and inviscid flow. m y m
