4- In a rectangular channel, a hydraulic jump occurs at a point where depth of water- before and after the jump was 0.6 m and 1.15 m respectively. Determine the discharge per unit width and critical depth (yc).
Q-9, At a hydraulic jump, the flow depths are 0.4 m and 5 m at the upstream and downstream, respectively. The channel is wide rectangular. Find the discharge per unit width.
Read the question carefully and give me both a&b right solutions. A 1.3-m wide rectangular channel with a bed slope of 0.00019 has a depth of flow of 0.8m. Manning’s roughness coefficient is 0.017. (a) Can Manning’s equation be applied to this system (i.e., is the flow fully turbulent)? (b) Regardless of the answer to part a, determine the steady uniform discharge in the channel.
