3. Water flows in a rectangular channel of width, w. In some cases, the water may suddenly increase in elevation as shown in the figure (from h to ha) through a highly disturbed region called a hydraulic jump. Assume the velocity is uniform at stations 1 and 2, and assume the pressures are distributed hydrostatically. Neglect friction on the channel bottom and sides. Hydraulic jump V2 Figure for problem 3. (a) Discuss the assumptions made in the problem statement. How...
