Attempt any two parts of the following:
A rectangular channel with a bottom width of 4.0 m
and a bottom slope of 0.0008 has a discharge of
1.50 m3 /s. In gradually van'es ?ow in this channel, the
depth at certain location is found to be 0.30m. Assuming
n = 0.016, determine the type of GVF pro?le.
Derive the dynamic equation of GVF, state its van'ovzs
assumption, also give the limitation of GVF.

What do you understand by term "Hydraulic?Jump".
Discuss the classi?cation of Hydraulic Jump and practical
applications of Hydraulic Jump.
A horizontal rectangular channel of constt. Width is ?tted
with a sluice gate.When the sluice gate is opened,water
issues with a velocity of 6 m/s and depth of 0.5 m
