Question: Question 1 a . ) Using Continuity and Momentum derive the expression the sequent depth relationship between upstream and downstream depths and upstream Froude Number

Question 1
a.) Using Continuity and Momentum derive the expression the sequent depth relationship between upstream and
downstream depths and upstream Froude Number for the rectangular channel (width b).
b.) Derive the expression for the energy loss, hL, in a hydraulic jump in terms of the upstream and downstream
depths.
c.)Estimate the ideal flow rate, QI
, over a spillway with total head upstream of the spillway, THu, the spillway crest
height, Hw, and the channel width B. Hence define a discharge coefficient; CD = QA/QI
.[hint: flow over a
spillway is similar to flow over a sharp-crested weir].
