In a spillway, the flow has a Froude number of 8, and depth before the jump is 2.5 meters. Calculate the depth after the jump and energy loss.
💡 Hint: Follow the depth ratio and energy loss equations as derived.
A rectangular channel has a velocity of 10 m/s and a depth of 1 meter before the jump. Determine Froude number before and after the jump if y2 is 5 meters.
💡 Hint: Balance flow equations while transforming for velocities.
