Water flows in a rectangular channel with velocity (V=6 mathrm{~m} / mathrm{s}). A gate at the end
Question:
Water flows in a rectangular channel with velocity \(V=6 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}\). A gate at the end of the channel is suddenly closed so that a wave (a moving hydraulic jump) travels upstream with velocity \(V_{w}=2 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}\). Determine the depths ahead of and behind the wave. Note that this is an unsteady problem for a stationary observer. However, for an observer moving to the left with velocity \(V_{w}\), the flow appears as a steady hydraulic jump.
