b. only major losses are included;
c. all losses are included

QUESTION 6- A wide rectangular channel has a change of slope from 1 in 100 to 1 in 500 and the flow is 4m3/s/m. Manning's n can be taken as 0.015.

a. Determine the normal depth of flow before and after the change in gradient.

c. Calculate the height of the jump and sketch the surface profiles before and after jump.
d. Calculate energy loss and approximate dimension of the jump.

QUESTION 7- Determine the headwater depth of a 1000 mm (high) by 1500mm (wide) concrete box culvert operating under outlet control with a stream flow of 3.0 m3/s. The culvert is 50 m long. K.=0.5 and on a slope of 0.25%. The tailwater depth is 1.1w. What will be the headwater depth if the tail water depth is reduced by 0.8 m?
