Question 1

What is a Hydraulic Jump?

A flow at constant velocity
Sudden change in water surface elevation
Steady uniform flow

💡 Hint: Think of how water reacts when it slows down dramatically.

Question 2

T/F: Gradually varied flow refers to a situation where water depth changes abruptly.

Challenge Problems

Push your limits with advanced challenges

Challenge 1 Hard

Given a channel with varying depths and slopes, calculate the critical and normal depths, then determine the type of flow profile.

💡 Hint: Break it down into steps—define each depth before comparing.

Challenge 2 Hard

Design an experiment to observe a hydraulic jump and its impact on sediment transport.

💡 Hint: Focus on how varying flow speeds can change the jump characteristics.
