Question: As you all know, Dr . Rahman has a chicken farm full of smart chickens. Being smart they are very bored because all they do

As you all know, Dr. Rahman has a chicken farm full of smart chickens. Being smart they are very
bored because all they do is lay eggs. The smart chicken decided to build a water slide for
amusement. The slide's centerpiece is a massive hydraulic jump intended to swamp, flip, and
launch riders called "Pawk Pawk" (in chicken language it means "Get me out of here, its
ridiculous"). The slide happens through a rectangular channel (n=0.015)10m wide that carries
a discharge of 50cms. Drawing of water slide is shown on Figure 1 next page. The energy losses
between sections C and 1 can be neglected. Critical depth occurs at section C just before the slide.
The Institute for Smart Chicken Extreme Entertainment (ISCEE) has published a Thrill Scale for
hydraulic jumps based upon the ratio of the change in depth across the jump to the jump's length,
y2-y1L. This scale is given below.
(a) What will be the Thrill Score for the hydraulic jump?
(b) Name one design change that could increase the Thrill Score and provide justification for this
answer.
Hint: Use Figure given to find out the length of the jump (L).
Please use steps in detail.
