Textbook Question
Chapter 11, Problem 30P
A hydraulic jump occurs on a horizontal apron downstream from a wide spillway at a location where depth is 0.9 m and speed is 25 m/s. Estimate the depth and speed downstream from the jump. Compare the specific energy downstream of the jump to that upstream.

A rectangular channel is 3.0 m wide and carries a discharge of 3.3 m³/s at a depth of 0.9 m. A smooth contraction of
the channel width is proposed at a section. Find the smallest contracted width that will not affect the upstream flow
conditions. Neglect the energy losses in the transition.
The bottom slope of a hydraulically optimum rectangular duct is 0.045 and the Manning friction coefficient is 0.025. If the height of the hydraulic jump formed in this channel is H = 3.5m; How many meters (m) are the energy losses due to the hydraulic jump?
Water flows in an open channel across a weir which occupies the full width of the channel. The lenght of the weir is 0.5 m and the height of water over the weir is 100 mm. What is the flow rate of water?
