Solution :
Given :
Discharge ,$ Q=17.93 \mathrm{~m}^{3} / \mathrm{s}$
Depth before jump, $ d_{1}=0.8 \mathrm{~m}$
Taking width, $b=1 \mathrm{~m}$,
we get Discharge per unit width,
$ q=\frac{17.93}{1}=17.93$
Let
$ d_{2}=$ Depth after jump and
$h_{L}=$ Loss of energy.
we get
$\begin {aligned} d_{2} &=-\frac{d_{1}}{2}+\sqrt{\frac{d_{1}^{2}}{4}+\frac{2 q^{2}}{g d_{1}}} \\ &=-\frac{0.8}{2}+\sqrt{\frac{0.8^{2}}{4}+\frac{2 \times …
