Solve for and sketch the water surface profile in a very long 10ft wide rectangular open channel of rough brickwork (n=0.017) when the flow rate is 400cfs. The bed slope is 0.02, and a 5 ft high streamlined hump is at downstream end. Locate all hydraulic jumps treating any gradually varied flow as a single reach. How does the water surface elevation vary between key points?

A string is 3.00 m long with a mass of 5.00 g. The string is held taut with an applied tension of 500.00 N. (a) If a transverse pulse is sent down the string, how long does it take the pulse to travel the whole length? (b) Now suppose we keep the same tension on a thinner string, with the same mass (5 g) but twice the length (6 m). How long does the pulse take to travel the length...
