Calculate the acceleration due to gravity if the wave speed is 6 m/s at a depth of 3 m.
Use the equation \\( g = \\frac{V^2}{y} \\).
Define subcritical flow.
Think about the characteristics of slower-moving water.

Think about the definition of flow regimes.
True or False: The acceleration due to gravity is the same for all planets.
Consider how different celestial bodies exert gravitational forces.
A rectangular channel with a width of 1.5 m carries a discharge of 4 m³/s. Calculate the critical depth and specific energy at critical depth.
Use relationship of specific energy and critical depth found in the previous topics.
A wave in a 1.2 m deep river travels at 3.5 m/s. Calculate the acceleration due to gravity and discuss the implications of a smaller gravity.
