A dam releases water into a spillway, and then some distance downstream a hydraulic jump occurs. The dam height is 25 m, the initial depth in the spillway is 1 m, and the hydraulic jump leads to a region of depth 15 m. Upstream of the dam may be considered a reservoir. Determine the average velocity before the jump and whether the jump will occur. If there will be a jump, determine the velocity after the hydraulic jump, neglecting any friction losses.

If the flow is critical at the throat, find the volume flow rate when the depth at the throat is 1.5 f t. 2. Water in an open channel of constant width flows over a bump of height 1 f t, as shown in Figure P10.10. What is the depth of the water Y2? Assume uniform flow of constant width with no losses.
Q: Water is flowing through an inclined aquifer (a=15°) as shown in the following figure. The depth of aquifer is H₁-3m.
