A partially open sluice gate discharges water into a rectangular channel. The tail water depth
formed at a downstream of the sluice gate after the vena contracta of the jet coming out from the sluice gae, the sluice gate opening should be (coefficient of contraction Cc = 0.9)in the channel is 3 m and Froude number is 1 . If a free hydraulic jump is to be 2 √2
-
- 0.3 m
- 0.4 m
- 0.69 m
- 0.9 m
- 0.3 m
Correct Option: C
y1 = | [-1 + √1 + 8Fr22] | |

∴ y = | = 0.69 m | |
